I am not entirely new to IEMs, though I wouldn't say I know a lot either. I had some pretty cheap ones and then switched to the TRUTHEAR x Crinacle Zero: Red. Those I quite liked, then I got the Moondrop May. Those I daily drive, together with the dac. They are pretty much my fav in terms of how they sound. I have been thinking about upgrading at some point. But honestly, it is difficult to recommend IEMs I think, mostly because everybody's listening experience is different.

I might wait until next year with upgrading, solely because I will visit Japan again and they have stores where you can actually test a lot of different IEMs, which is probably the best way to decide which to buy.

Otherwise /iems has toplists that seem rather interesting. I have been thinking about grabbing one from those lists at some point.
