Worthy Upgrade from Klipsch S4?

[Livngston]

Hey all,

I am looking for a worthy upgrade from my Klipsch S4. I love these IEMs and their bass heavy tone, but was looking for something still in the same bass range but with greater clarity. I was considering the RHA T10i and the RBH EP3 as possible options. How would you compare them to the Klipsch? Any other recommendations? I'm willing to spend up to $200.



Thanks!

Like you, the S4 was what got me started on IEMs.

Anything really. Those are great starter IEMs, but the rabbit hole gets deeper from there.

If you're looking at bang for the buck, you can go pretty high end with Chinese IEMs. For example, my daily driver is a 4 BA + 1 DD that I paid about $212 for, that will shame the S4 on bass, mids and treble.

If you want to stick with bigger brands, Sennheiser IE80 might be a bit outside of your price range, by $20 or so.
