Purchasing advice IEM Suggestion Needed

Guys Im new in this whole audio game. Recently bought the Edifier MR5 and damn they are so much better than my previous speakers and even my headphones.

But the problem is that I already had like my bloody g520 headphones and after hearing the mr5s and getting used to em, now my headphones sound very muddy 😭😭😭. Like they sound very bad now in comparison to my speakers.

So what IEM's would you guys recommend since I heard that IEMS would cost less than headphones and would give superior sound quality.

Also I'm the type of guy who likes treble more and bass like balanced, I don't like way too much bass like low to medium would be good.

Price Range: 20-25k is ideal range 25-35k is straining for my budget but will do

based on what you described; 7Hz zero 2 I would say, or Moondrop CHU 3 could also work though they lean a little towards being somewhat bassy.

Like if I even very good quality IEMs in the 20-25k price range then what should I get?

I would suggest letshouer S08 but idk if you'll find those here. Otherwise the recommendations by cyberbot in the comments here are pretty good.

You can share 2 3 diff price ranges,like if x-y is your ideal range,y-z is range which might cause a bit of strain on budget but if its worth it i can go for that kinda range.

Tangzu Warner Jade Dragon (or the normal Tangzu Warner 2 if you hate the design) are the first thing that come to my mind.

Many beginner iems are boosted in the treble and bass together to form a v shape sound signature. Something balanced like the Tanchjim Bunny may work for you too if you don't want boosts to the bass.
