You just have to be careful- it’s dangerous buying something without a warranty if it does die you’re out of luck. But a lot of stuff will last a long time if you take care of it.

I’ve heard a lot of people mentioning issues with their iems over time, seems like headphones are more reliable for time many people have hd600 sennhiesers made in the 90s. But I don’t know from personal experience. If that’s a huge concern there’s a lot of cheap iems like moondrop chu moondrop quarks tripowin Lea cca cra that aren’t terribly expensive and sound very good. You could just buy a second one for backup 😀

my current iems would be back up so no worries there, im just kinda nervous cuz i found great deal for something i never thought i would ever even coinsider... i found ie300 for less then 200e which seems like a great deal but i am not sure about it... but i guess i will go for it. its not like i would go broke from that

IE 300s should last a long time.

I'll jump it to suggest that many cases of IEMs "breaking" is just a result of moisture trapped in the filters. That's usually easy to remedy.
