Two weeks ago I had a chance to first time in my life listen to the true high end, Nostalgia Audio Durandal and Hercules Audio Moses. Now It’s hard to unhear those hahaha. I like both over ear headphones and iems, However iems without a doubt do offer more value per $ spent. I still have and listen

Sennheiser 620S on sale at 299$ in Canada
