I couldn't afford speakers so I got IEMs. They'd be useful if I could actually connect them to my TV, the output is broken.
After $1000 I would rather buy speakers
If you could get iems with better soundstage than open backs that are also $200 but sound like $1000 then yeah, I'd get that and nothing else. The closest thing to that would be my $159 planars but they'd fall off with heavy exercise, I suppose a cable swap could work but they're heavy to begin with... and they don't sound like $1000.
That Grado was sub bass anemic back in 2005 when all I listened to was rap.
I mixed rap beats on them for my car that had a 2 18" wall. Boy it was loud.
Practicality.
Earbuds that are 12 years old.
Headphones that leak sound, low ohm.
New IEMs, for house. Better isolation.
New IEMs, cheaper, for biking and gaming.
New planar IEMs for home sound quality. Too expensive to bike with.
New headphones that sound better, high ohm.
I had a grado sr80 for ten years. someone stole them.
How low? Why suffers?
Would this drive my Grados? I'll buy it right now.
Planar IEMs have the best textured bass, they're deeper but less impactful, very separated. Best for music. Otherwise DD IEMs slam with EQ.
Hifiman edition xs for planar open back headphone for sound quality+bass at a somewhat budget of $500 USD.
The jvc sz2000 is known as the bassiest headphone in the world. It needs EQ to have max output. They're discontinued but you can find one or two used on like eBay.
Thx900 headphone because closed back.
I recommend the ms1 galaxy IEM with EQ for budget ($16) bass. I use +12db at 31hz with -3 gain. I also have a truthear zero: red and it has really good sub bass but at $55 USD and there's almost no difference between it and the ms1 but the red is quieter by 6db.

Flat sounds mid focused. You enjoy one thing with it.
Boosted bass and highs lets you enjoy two things. A double whammy.
