I want an easy IEM where I can easily hook up comply eartips and go without worrying about the wrong fit or the cord being too thick for over-ear.
 
 
Some that come to mind are:
HiFiMan RE-400
TF10 (not sure if over-ear or not)
X10 
HF5
Monster Turbine
 
 
 
 
What is the best bang for buck <$200 (about $200 total shipped to Canada!)??
 
 
Thanks.

But the best $200 iem, unfortunately for you, is over ear.It's the KEF M200.

I actually just picked up a pair of tf10 for 150.00 off ebay.

Eph are supposed to be pretty good

I would much prefer something that I can buy new aswell that supports comply tips so EPH-100 and used TF10s are a stretch from getting. How do the RE-400s and Klipsch X10 compare to eph-100s?

Can't speak to X10s. RE-400s and EPH-100s are pretty similar, they both get the job done certainly. REs are more neutral. EPHs have some odd treble qualities, and a somewhat more 'fun' signature. I like 'em both, but prefer the REs. Far more tip options as well, which I suppose you realize.

even though theyre over-ear I think i'm going to go for the BA-200 since they look more comfortable than the EPH-100 and they are compatible with comply foam tips. The ba-200 also has dual BA drivers and are one of the best for $150.
