This post was inspired by the IE900 deal here
I have not tried the IE900 myself, but the IE600 at this price-point, represents great value for anyone wanting to go down the audiophile rabbit-hole.
The IE600 from Sennheiser embodies the audiophile passion for quality with meticulous craftsmanship and exquisitely neutral sound. For exceptional lifetime durability and a unique premium aesthetic, the IE600 features 3D printed housings made from ZR01 amorphous zirconium for triple the hardness and bend resistance of steel. Its dual resonator chambers eliminate masking resonances for exceptional fidelity, while the TrueResponse transducers ensure incredible tonally neutral, intimate, true-to-life voicing and impactful bass response.
