In my opinion, without having done direct A/B, Svanar is definitely an upgrade in almost everything - better stage, more refined treble, more textured bass, good mids and most importantly - dynamics and resolution are better. Svanar are also more comfortable. But overall it is a bit expensive for DD.
Can anyone guess where my vote went …
PENON QUATTRO
4 Dynamic driver audiophile In-ear earphone IEM
6mm custom dynamic driver for High frequency x 1
8mm graphene diaphragm for Medium frequency x 1
10mm composite diaphragm for Low frequency x 2
Impedance: 16 Ohm
Sensitivity: 100dB
Frequency response: 5-30kHz
4 DDs to cover parts of the whole spectrum? Interesting! Done right could be highly musical experience but I’ll stay kind of sceptic.
The size of drivers makes more sense than CF’s Trifecta with it’s 3x10mm DD driver config…maybe in the future a 12mm, 8mm and a super tweeter now that could be … Interested to see how this works out for sure

I tend to think the Mangird Tea MkII is the ideal IEM for metal. It is a bit V-shaped, but the treble is well controlled, and the DD has some nice slam to it. They have great stage and imaging.
If you want something a bit less expensive, I think Kailua is my favorite pick under $100.
