Begginer here: and when I say expensive I mean 150$. I don't know if it's worth it to put it all in one iem (ie200) them I have +2 year warranty and maybe upgrade the accessories along the way

Or-

Just buying an ultracheap chifi (10-20$) and just switch them out when they break

Is the quality and sound of an expensive pair worth the money? Also what if for some reason I'll just stop liking how they sound?

I think sennheisers are always a good investment because of how durable they are. I have chi-fi IEMs (FIIO) that started getting issues after 2 months and I have IE600 and HD650 with 0 problems at all. I dropped the 650's many times and the IE600 feel way more sturdy than other cheap plastic IEMs so IMO I'd go for the Senn
