I tried ie200 and hexa I'd pick hexa as the better all rounder but comfort wise ie200 is better imo

They look fine. The candenza 2 though is very noticable that its too big for your ears. The Pure has a bit of a chonky shell but still small nonetheless. The Hexa is less chunky, but has less bass than the Pure. Are you getting a good seal out of all the IEMs? That's whats important too. You can look for 3rd party tips, but take note of the specifics in sizes. I use S size tips in all of my IEMS, some tips have 11mm in with, some are 11.2 or .3mm and that is still S size. If you want to upgrade from the Chu2, I suggest the two LAN variants, IE200, and the Meze Alba.

I have the same eartips + IE200 haha. I enjoyed them a lot and it made me wonder if the IE600 might be worth it. But I considered them too expensive. Now I found someone selling a complete new pair, (packaged with the seal, they got it under warranty) for about 470€. I found this offer too good to decline

That's currently the closest option that we have. Ie200 and 600. Not that interesting from just the tuning perspective but as overall package it's just unbeatable.

What cable did you use? I bought lot of cables and all of them start to fail on one of the sides, only the original cable works well. What tips are you using? Anyway, after getting the Artti t10 and nice tips, I don't use the ie200 that much.

I used the Dunu S&S for a while, with the Artti t10 and ie200, they were amazing, till they got a bit uncomfortable. For the ie200 I now use the divinus velvet or the stock ones and for the t10, Tri clarion. They don't hurt, they are very comfortable, it's strange, because most iems hurt my ears or don't stay. If I change the cable for a tripowin zonie, they don't stay very well. The ie200 are very comfortable, but I think they seal a lot better and give me a strange sensation, I can't use them when studying or staying still. Need to try the zombur cable. Depending on the source the T10 can be very fattiging. With the qudelix 5k I don't like them, with the echo nano or my fiio jm21 I love them a lot. I think the Tri clarion also give them more bass and smooth the treble a bit, but isn't for everyone's ears. The ie200 sound more natural, cleaner (with tape mod and right tips). But I found the T10 more fun to hear, they punch fast and the treble (when you smooth it out) sounds good to me. The ie200 sounds "boring", but I think it's my ears adapting.
