Visiting HPZ studio next week to try the IE 200 and Hexa. Below is my understanding from this sub, YouTube reviews, and other sources. Guide me if you've tried or own either (details in the post below)
Preferred sound signature: Flat/neutral
Bass: Yes, I do love bass and enjoy listening to it. But definitely not a bass-head.
Other preferences: I love analysing instruments so imaging and sound stage holds equal importance.
My biggest pain point in my current Audio Technica ATH E40 is proprietary connectors that limit after market cables and also damn expensive (and worst the replacement cables didn't last me 6 months to a year before one side started glitching).
Budget should not be a constrain as I want to upgrade to something I really enjoy instead of putting of whenever I feel like listening to music.
