                 Hi everybody, I am new here and I am looking for a pair in ear earphone since my old one is broken.  My price range is from $50 to $100. I have read a few review on Vsonic gr06, MEElectronics A161, or 

MEElectronics A151. and other brand also. How are they working? in terms durability and sound quality? I am not asking to chose between these three. I am not a pro in ear buds . So, is there any in ear earphone with microphone(not necessary) that is good for all around use such as listen music and watching movie, even good for running sometimes. thanks for the help in advance. Appreciate it!!!

i haven't heard these, but was also interested in the MEElectronics A161 after reading the review over at Inner Fidelity.  They say, in part, "bass ... is quick and clean, but also surprisingly punchy, even aggressive at times. Impact is greater than with the classic Etymotic ER-4S"  That sounds promising!

Up your budget $20 and get the Rockit Sounds R-50, your ears will thank you.

I'm voting for GR06.

I've never heard the A161 though. I was not a fan of the A151. I just seem to like dynamics for the low end.

I also like the TDK EB950, while not as smooth as GR06, it has a little bit more energy on the top end. It has less of a mid bass hump than the GR06 but reaches much lower. 

GR06 is non-fatiguing while EB950 is more engaging. Your choice.

Can't go wrong with either, they're both brilliant for the price.

If $100 is your top budget than you might want to look at the Fischer Audio Silver Bullet v2 ($64.90), it has really good detail with nice impactful bass and the largest soundstage of any IEM under $100 I've heard.
