My current top 3 are

 

  • GR06
  • RE0
  • Klipsch S4
  • Brainwavz M2

 

Any help deciding or new suggestion would be greatly appreciated. 

 

My past IEMs are Nuforce N6's and Dunu 12's.

S4 are very comfortable but they have been dominated by new iems some time now. Also keep in mind that RE0 are totally different from the M2 which are a lot bassier.. Take a look to the A161 which take really good comments

Don't forget to add the Etymotic MC5 to your list.

Very Nice.

MC5 is horrible, perhaps you mean HF5? The GR06 is wonderful though.

The most reasonable i guess ....

6 $ international shipping and Base price = 59 $ is also quite cheap.

Good luck.

By MC5, i meant MC5 ... the HF5 come under the 150$ category ... the MC5 arent that bad as u express considering a 75 $ buy (though GR06 are the best in that range) ... correct me if i am wrong... :p

I'd personally say that's wrong. HF5 can actually be had for $80-100, and the MC5 is a dynamic driver that just happens to sound a little like the signature of the better balanced-armature based Etymotic offerings, but without any of the clarity or instrument separation. Not worth $75 from when I listened to it, maybe more around $40.
