Begginer here: and when I say expensive I mean 150$. I don’t know if it’s worth it to put it all in one iem (ie200) them I have +2 year warranty and maybe upgrade the accessories along the way
Or-
Just buying an ultracheap chifi (10-20$) and just switch them out when they break
Is the quality and sound of an expensive pair worth the money? Also what if for some reason I’ll just stop liking how they sound?
IE200 have absolutely awful cable and you can’t change it because it’s modifier mmcx, so standard ones won’t work, you gotta spend another $100 to get their own upgrade cable, if you don’t mind a bit of BA timbre from relatively cheap hybrids go with Truthear Hexa, basically on par with Moondrop KATO but hybrid instead of single DD so you get a bit of that BA timbre, otherwise matches 1:1 to KATO in everything and KATO is a very good $189 IEM one of price point defining IEMs
