Affordable CIEM/IEMs?

I thought they were very resolving. Just way too anemic for my liking. Great isolation as well, surprisingly I didn't find them uncomfortable.

 

Etys are nothing if not resolving IMO, that fit is more hit or miss tho... I never find them uncomfortable, but they never disappear either.

I value them for the opposite reason that I value my XS, with the latter I can remain somewhat aware of my surroundings - can hear PA announcements at an airport gate even if I can't understand it until I slip them off, etc...

With the Etys in I'm pretty much oblivious to the world. I've been meaning to try their ACS tips for years but never gotten around to it.

 

I bought a second hand UERM and had Inearz reshell it. It was about $500-550 in total all fees included.
