    in-ear headphones similar to grado sr80/alessandro ms1

    Etymotic MC5, Thinksound Rain have something in common with Grado sound.

    RE0 vs. Etymotic mc5 mini

    Well, none of the supplied tips with MC5 worked for me or sounded any good. But things changed when I got Shure grey soft flex tips on them. I now prefer MC5 over RE0 unamped out of my Fuze. MC5 has better bass extension and presence, fuller mids and comparable treble. I don't find MC5 any less...

    Which in ear to replace UE Superfi 5 ??

    Wear them with the cable up and behind your ears, that should significantly reduce microphonics.    Most earphones when worn cable straight down will have some cable noise.

    Comparison between RE0 and Fischer Audio Silver Bullet

    SB has a lot more bass, a bit more forward fuller mids, much larger soundstage and less detailed and extended (but still very good) highs.

    IEM's with powerful bass, large soundstage, sparkly treble

    I'd take Silver Bullet over Eterna for better soundstage and treble. The bass is still great.

    Best smooth sounding IEM under $100

    Eterna is somewhat excessive with bass and has darker treble, imho.

    Best smooth sounding IEM under $100

    Thinksound Rain was very smooth and well balanced.

    IEM with Grado'esque forwardness?

    Thinksound Rain but it will be smoother.

    IEM between $40-$75 - basshead

    Etymotic Research ER6i, UE Super 5v or Super 4 are not going to be bassy enough for a bass head. Neither will Rain, probably. I'd look into TS01 over Rain. Eterna is a good choice. Meelec M11+ is very bassy too, while retaining good mids and highs.
