Im honestly so happy that Sennheiser has been on a roll lately. The new IEM lineup is a huge improvement compared to their older stuff and the HD660S2 is the first meaningful headphone in the HD6xx series since the original HD600.

My next wish: A true HD800(S) successor, a HD900, not a HD800S2.

Are the HD660s2 new? I only know the HD660s that came out a while ago.

Just bought some Blessing 3 and S12 and I still think the IE800 / IE800S is an underrated gem.

I picked it up for $150~ used, if you can get it from a reliable seller. Such a fun sound signature, comfortable, and way more airy than most IEMs I've tried.

Some people in this community exaggerated when they told me that IEMs like the Wan'er and Chu outclassed it at this point.

The people that claim the Chu outclasses the IE800 have likely never heard the IE800.
