Thanks for the shout out man! Honestly in my opinion what you want is the VE Elysium-- it’s wheelhouse is exactly what I think you’re looking for (seductive midrange, peerless instrumental timbre and naturalness, intimacy etc.). [Here](https://forum.headphones.com/t/vision-ears-custom-and-universal-iems-offical-thread/9920/19) is my review of it if you’re interested. They can be had on sale right now for just over $2k and are sometimes available used for ~$1800. The only real caveat is that you need (imho) a relatively powerful source to drive them.
