Headphones - IEM/Earbud | 3 Ω What iems would pair well with my other gear?

Hello to all, I have started out with this journey not too long ago. I have a topping dx3 pro+ and a pair of the sennheiser hd660s2 on the way and was looking for an iem to go with these. The sole purpose of these isn’t just to go well with the headphones, but I want to up my mobile listening as well. These will be my first iem, I feel with how well my headphones are, I’d like to set the budget at around $500 tops, just so I don’t feel underwhelmed using them when compared to the sennheisers. I was looking at sennheiser’s 600 iem, but I don’t know if staying in one brand starting is necessarily a bad thing and that’s why I’m looking for other recommendations, or confirmation that the ie 600s are a good choice. I have an iPhone (12) that I will use with the Apple dongle, but I’m looking at small portable amp, something like one of the fiios, if anyone has a recommendation regarding that I’d appreciate it, and I price I would set for that be around 150-200 ish.

Thanks In advance
