In Ear Headphones with Detachable Cord for <$200?

Thread Starter 

Hi, I am looking for a pair of in ear headphones for less than $200 that has a detachable cord. I am not an audiophile, I just would like something that has depth to the sound. I listen to mostly electronic music of varying genres. I need a detachable cord because all the past headphones I have owned (bose,v-moda, beats) have broken because of the cords.

 

I've been eyeing the ShureSE215, but in some reviews people say that they are uncomfortable to wear.

 

Any suggestions???

 

Thanks!

First of all they are called In Ear Monitors or just plainly Earphones. Second of all, the Shure SE215s are excellent. try my review if you want to know more about it. http://www.head-fi.org/t/553343/review-edited-shure-se215-iem-review

In Ear Headphones with Detachable Cord for

Another option if your in the US is Sony Ex600, there was a post the other day where you could get a pair for about $140. They don't isolate as good as the SE215 but they are darn near the most comfortable IEM I have owned (I actually have the bigger brother MDR7550 but they are both the same form factor) they also come with a massive fit kit (tips).

You can try Earsonics SM1, the isolation is supreme, it has deatachable cable and it's 200$.

SE215s are extremely comfortable and they sound really fun. It's no where near as serious as some IEMs like Etymotics, but they are really that capable of putting a smile on your face. For 100 and less you can't go wrong. Real fun bass. Extends really far and hits hard. It's fairly well controled as well. The SE215s are my main portable Dubstep, Rap, and Electroswing IEMs. I find it hard to believe when someone says they don't like the SE215
