Looking for an iem below 300$
Mainly listening to rock/pop
Using lg g4
Thx

Wah. Like i say before unless you know your stuff and have good source + files, dont bother going over $100-150. I will assume that you have damn good source files cos G4 has good audio dac internally, and damn good hearing, can try the FAD Heavens series.

Looking for headphones $300++
Mainly listening to classic rock/pop
Using my z3 mostly. Have an ibasso dx50 but rarely use it. Thinking of selling it to fund my headphone purchase

Also I'm coming from using Westone Es5. One side had crapped out on me. Lasted me 3 good years.

I one-shot recommend the RHA brand for all of you. They have various offerings at each price range, and is made for iPhone too. So just head down to an audio shop like Stereo or AV One and try the ones that fit your budget.
