For that price range I suggest Ultrasone HFI 680.  They have a good SS and good bass.  They respond well to EQ so you can up the bass if you want.  The highs are bright at first but tame down with burn in.  They have a nice neutral sound. They just keep sounding better the longer you listen to...

the 780s will be good for a lot of different genres.  i would definitely take them over the 580 especially since theyre not that much more expensive on amazon right now which is a great deal 

Based on your listening preferences I say you should get the TF10s.  The isolation is good for plane rides and they sound awesome too.  I used to have DBA-02s but they really lack any punch when it comes to listening to electronic music.  I wanted an IEM that would sound good with all my music...

I listen to a lot of dubstep and electronic music.  The UE TF10 are not uncomfortable at all nor do they have too much bass.  The amount of bass they have is perfect for dubstep and they respond well to EQ.  Just make sure you find the right tips and you will not have an issue with comfort.  I...

given the 680 has the least bass of the three, does it have more/better bass than the senn 280s?

Please help me choose which of the three will suit me best.  I listen to mostly electronic and alternative music with some rap/hip hop.  I read that the bass on all three is pretty good so that shouldn't be an issue.  Mids are also pretty important to me as I like to hear vocals clearly without...

Yes, even over the DBAs.  I love the detail of the DBA but I need a bit more bass and the TF10 give me that.    Quote:   It is pretty easy.  Just put one side on first and kind of hold it in place so that it doesn't move.  Then you can slide the other side on.  Fits well and is the...

I got mine two days ago and I really love the way they sound.  The stock tips that they came with were okay but didn't give me the best seal.  I am using some tips from the DBA-02 and they are more comfortable and sound awesome.  TripleFi's respond well to EQ so I suggest that, like many others...

I love the S4s for electronic music!  The highs are just fine

does that mean you've never listened to them and are just taking everyones opinions on them?    Quote:

imo, the 900s definitely are NOT on a completely different tier.  Most people will probably say they're MUCH better but I don't know why.  I like my S4s way more.

A lot of people seem to like the HJE900s a lot but I wasn't impressed.  Sure they sound nice but my S4s are more fun to listen to.  I bought the HJE900 because of all the reviews but ended up selling after a week...I still have my Klipsch.   Quote:

the S4s do not lack in the treble.  sure the bass is the strong point and there are IEMs with more clear and detailed highs but the S4s probably wouldn't disappoint you.   $50 is an excellent price for these and even their full MSRP is definitely way worth it.

FA Eterna or Klipsch S4   I listen to a lot of electronic music and both of those handle the genre well

just get them...you will be very happy with your decision
