Hi. I'm looking for IEMs to use with my phone (cba to carry a separate device in my pocket), while in the subway (rather noisy place) and that will be loose inside my jacket (no extra care). I'm not a basshead by any means, do require a bit of isolation and I'm concerned about having at least decent comfort (can't stand the triple flanges of Etymotic). Also I don't really care about having Android controls.
I auditioned the GR07 (not the Bass Edition since they didn't have it), and while I liked them I wanted to know if there's anything better, that wouldn't be an overkill for just using them with the phone.
I tried the DUNU 1000 and 2000 as well, finding both to be really nice, but they do not isolate that well and are a bit heavy (not a major concern in that case). Could consider them regardless, especially the 1000's as I preferred the sound signature.
I also tested the RE-600 with double flanges, but I think even those wouldn't be optimal for a IEM to just carry around and walk. Still could still use them tho if there isn't anything with one flange that doesn't have enough isolation for the job.
Which would you recommend? Doesn't necessarily have to be one of those listed.
On a second and separate note, the alternative could be something higher end, but with the condition that the IEMs have detachable/swappable cables. That way I wouldn't have a $400-$500 product that is relying on a cable. Also, I don't see myself using Customs, as that would be too much of a hassle. A quick search lead me to the Shure 535, but is there anything else I should consider?
Thirdly, in theheadphonelist.com is there any way to sort IEMs by value? At least a list of the 9.5 to 10/10 would be nice.
Thanks a lot.
edit: BTW my current headphones are the HD600 (office) and the PM-3 (home), while in the subway I use the Piston 2's. The Pistons don't isolate at all and the bass boost is quite noticeable, which I don't like. Never used the Android controls.
