It really is subjective, the correct iem for you will always be what you need and can comfortably afford first. There are days that i really crave my focal clear headphones and rarely when i really want for certain songs either hifiman shangrila jr or focal utopia. But most of the time i pick my clear or senn hd650 since I can be more comfortable or laidback with them. Most times, i even choose to power them with just my chord mojo. So effectively speaking, you can get away with just the most pleasing and comfortable headphone you can get your hands on without breaking the bank which for me is ie600 iem or even just starfields, or hd650/focal clear with chord mojo. Good to note that i really like vocal-centric songs like pop and alternative rock that’s why i gravitate to those iem/headphone. Also i would have still rocked my starfields if i didn’t try ie600. Preferences will always change so no rush in moving from headphone to headphone unless you have money to burn budgeted for hobbies.
