    I've recently done quite a bit of research on this, and I'm currently eyeing Truthear Hexa to use for producing.

    In my experience your search should involve "IEM" instead of "earphones" it narrows the search to "in ear" devices that are meant for monitoring on-stage so audio fidelity is of the utmost priority. That said, the Truthear products have a great rep. I went with the KZ brand to save some money and they are fantastic. The sound quality vs price point is hard to beat. Good luck!
