IEM vs overhead

[mrk]

IEM bass is only fully realised with a perfect seal, the tip type also matters quite a lot, those bundled silicone tips don't always create a 100% seal like memory foam tips do as well

As said IEMs totally rely on a good seal to really perform. I love IEMs. Massive bang for buck, better comfort than over ears and bass response is as good if not better than any cans I've come across.

You can buy cheap dacs Jcally etc to solve that, I prefer 4.4 balanced over 3.5.

These are the ones I used. Not sure where or what USBc cable to get for them. My phone doesn't have a 3.5 port.

4.4?

4.4 is the larger jack connector to the 3.5 which has kind of become standard for portable media players, 6.5 is hifi standard.

JMCally JM6 pro or JM12, usb c at one end and 3.5 connector at the other.

Just on the side of this. There's a LOOOOT of cables on the usual chinese store for both 2 pin and MMCX based IEM's that include a boom mic. It's been my go-to setup for about the last 3/4 years.

Something like "2 pin IEM cable with boom mic" should see you good. The usual rainforest sell similar, but they tend to just be batches bought and re-sold.
