Ya I am a fan of the Deltas. Simply because they can take some abuse and not worry so much about them..I am gonna say they are the best built $20 iems in the market.. The sound is pretty good too.. Makes for a perfect workout iem.

If I did this correctly this should be the link for the KEF @ $173

Or because now you can get them with 2-day free Prime shipping (for Prime members) for fast gratification, whereas my Deltas shipped from China a while ago and may take some time to get here still. They were a bit cheaper though.

  Interesting.  I like the Monster Gratitude and Zero Audio Basso and Tenore more than the RE-400.  I found the RE-400 too bass-light and sterile.
 
I know these are over $100, but do you like the Fidelio S2 and RHA MA750 better than the RE-400?

Yes, I do like the S2 and MA750 over the RE-400 (but only because of the bass). I think if the RE-400 had as much bass as the S2 and 750, it would prefer it's overall sound signature over the other two. I like the spaciousness of the RE-400's sound. Again, I was comparing sound quality in specific price ranges though.

The RE-400 handles EQ down low really well, especially when amped. I use a big boost with them, otherwise they aren't much fun for me either.

So, Eric, the new Fostex TE-05 has comments like "slaughters" the RE400 and "kills" the MA750. Are you going to per chance buy one?

Yep, not available for a bit but I am just messing with Eric. Obviously he will be powerless to see for himself if it will be the new $100 champion! I'll be on board the Fostex train myself when it arrives.

It is a scary thing indeed when joker reviews totl iem`s like the JH13 and gives them raving reviews:

Just registered and wanted to say thanks to this thread and all in it for informing me that good sound doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg, been reading since the FX101 was the hot new thing and just wanted to say keep up the good work guys =)

Yes, I'm interested in the TE-05, but can't find where it's being sold.
