IEM recommendations around $100
I've recently started to do a bit more "moving around" during the day (about 2 hours a day travelling time) so I've been looking at some IEM's.

Are Grado's worth picking up for if you DON'T listen to much rock?
I've been curious about Grado's for a while now. I don't listen to the genre's they are purported to work with though, which has stopped me from looking at them further. There seems to be a love hate relationship with these cans in that they only seem to be recommended for certain genres, have...- Mani ATH 87
