Well, they are all similar in that they are fairly balanced dynamic-driver earphones in the $150-200 range. I do like the GR07 better than the IE7 personally but right now (still <50 hrs burn-in) it falls just a bit a short of being a top-tier dynamic. It matches my preferences better than the Radius TWF21 but I'm the first to admit that it's not nearly as smooth and lush.

 
Yep! None of my top IEMs feel threatened by GR07 either. I think of it more as a good companion to those top-tiers than an able replacement. Mine too is still under 50 hrs, so will give it a proper listen this weekend.

Does the genre that I listen to really make a difference when I pick IEM's. Which of all these do you think is the overall best?

Edit: are the klipcsh s4's any good?

Type in "Sennheiser", and you'll see plenty of Senny reviews.
 
Bose is not a very popular brand here, you can do a quick search to see why...
 
and...since Joker isn't loaded with money, I guess no one has offered to lend their shures to him for review

...I thought Bose was good.

They're quite good if they go for 10% of their asking price

 

[Inks]

Heh, a lot more than 10% actually. 

 

[Ikarios]

Bose and Monster products would garner a lot less hate if they just priced them reasonably at about 1/3 of the MSRP.

Just an expression

Does anybody know if there is a cap to the ignore list?

Monster earphones are less than $250.
Unless you're talking about headphones.

Yes, and they're also terrible for MSRP (unless you're talking about Turbines or Turbine derivatives, in which case they're pretty good - but only for street price).
 
Please, read the reviews in this thread before asking questions. Joker's worked very hard to compile a very large list of IEMs in this thread, all with prices and value scores.
