Hello guys 
 
I want to buy some good headphones for my iPhone 4 preferable without separate amp.
Mostly i listen to Hip Hop and jazz. i would not call me a bass head.
 
At home i use B&W CM7 with some Rotel stuff, maybe that helps.
 
i don't need ultra highend stuff as i use them commuting in train but i would like something nice.
 
I looked at Etymotic Research HF3 but i don't know if they work for the hip hop part..
the iphone remote would be nice but not a must. 
as the price difference to the ER4P is quite small around here, maybe i should take those?
 
price is not really a issue but i don't think there is need to spend more then 200 $ as the iphone is not an optimal source
and i did like to use them day to day without being over careful.
 
as i read around this site i found the Hifiman RE0 but i don't like the idea of carring an external amp.
i also looked at Shure SE210 but some say the have even less bass then the Ety's... 
 
Any opinions or suggestions?
 
thanks!

no advice to the ety's?
 
it looks like everyone recommends the sennheiser IE 8 for hip hop but i don't like the look...
 
any other ideas?

Take a look at Radius DDM, something similar to sound signature of IE8. I prefer Radius over IE8 myself.
Also priced very well.
