I’ve reached a comfortable spot. I’m certainly less interested in the hobby now, which bodes well for my wallet.

But for me, it’s:

HD560s, IE200 w/ Springtips and Airpods Pro Gen 2.

I have tonnes more. Countless chi-fi IEMs, open-back audiophile headphones, the latest TWS pairs and ANC headphones… but at the end of the day, these are the only units I use anymore. I value comfort equal or just above sound quality and consider myself a FR cultist.

IE200 was the final piece of the puzzle for me. The comfortable isolation and form factor really elevate them above my Moondrops, Truthears etc. I also like that they’re priced sensibly - meaning they are what the average person would consider premium, but if I ever lose them or damage them, I can replace them without much fuss.
