IEM with the best Imaging and sound stage? - Head-Fi.org
Aug 2, 2015 · Under 1.5k I've owned TOTL earbuds before (Astrotec Lyras) The fit was awful for me and the sound wasn't that good tbh.

IEM vs Earbuds | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org
Feb 5, 2011 · Earbuds have a harder challenge to produce a high quality sound because the sound is not being forced into the ear canal, like an IEM. OTOH, it is easier to hear and judge the quality of an IEM for the same reason, because all other sounds are blocked out. Cheap IEMs reveal themselves quite quickly, and so do audiophile level IEMs.

What's the actual difference in IEM's and typical earbuds?
Jan 26, 2023 · A lot of websites like to use "earbuds" as a generic umbrella term to encompass all sorts of earphones/IEMs, but in picture A, we have bona fide earbuds, where the transducer does not enter the ear canal. So earbuds lack in isolation, and generally have weaker sub-bass than IEMs (figure B), which enter the ear canal and provide a seal.
