Honestly I hit this too recently, splurged on some top line stuff and honestly need to force myself to use them over some cheaper options I have.
For example I picked up the Moondrop Meteors and Blessing 3’s
Yet still find myself falling back to the old trusty Shire se215, kiwi ears orchestra and moondrop aria snow editions
I find the top line are always very “clean” sounding but i personally enjoy the sound curve on the lower line models best! Might be what my ears are capable of hearing also. Again all subjective and YMMV
Always enjoy the little sense of discovery with things like this, think finding the limit of price to returns for me is a fun thing with most hobbies i get into.
Finding out for yourself is important! Now I get more excited when I find some a pair of cheap little gems that I can recommend to people looking for some IEM’s!
To be fair I have tried several IEMs with my controller and none of them have had static issues.
I have used:
- Moondrop Chu 2
- Moondrop Aria SE
- Letshuoer S08
- Kiwi Ears Aether
- Thieaudio Hype 4.
Maybe you should try another pair to confirm it isn't your controller.
From my experience with the kefine klean the soundstage was pretty mediocre, to me it was a airpods pro 2 but significantly more narrow. Similar detail retrieval and tonality so I think klean is great value at <35-40$. It’s actually nicer than my Aria SE lol. But not what you’re looking for imo.
Aria Snow.
Tbh, i didnt try that many of iems, 6-7 or so. so i cant call myself as someone who has tried a lot of IEMs and not would define Aria Snow as my literal endgame, but these are my favourites as for now. i really like them with a little bass reduction

Budget gaming pick, but poor cables and polarizing bass.
