So I hear these balanced armature (BA) headphones are pretty freakin sweet.  Is there an entry level pair that doesn't cost $300?

 

I adore the Klipsch x10i headphones, but I just don't have $200-300 to spend on them right now, anyone else know any BA alternatives?

The Etymotics are BA (hf5 and above)

The Etymotic HF(2,3,5) is pretty darn good. It costs about $110-$150
