I got one of these a while ago. They go on sale for 0.35 cents shipped with coupon code (check slickdeals) every few weeks it seems for a limited time. It holds my S9, RE0s, and E5 just fine. Easy Bag for Cellphone, MP3 Player and Stationary The small round case that comes with the PL30s...

I loved my re0, i had to send mine back because the case split and now it seems my replacement is lost in the mail - gonna email head-direct if they're not here today. I realize how much I like them now that I don't have them and have to go back to my PL30. They made the music so more dynamic...

The left bud of my RE0 split (between the smooth and grated parts) today. It had actually split before a few days after I got it, but I was able to screw it back in and I thought it would be fine. Today though, it split again and will not screw into the other side and is currently held together...

the best for under 30 would probably be the soundmagic pl30 i would imagine. maybe the cx300 would work well for you if bass is really important.

I've been very close to buying the IE7s for a while now (waiting to find them for around $150), but I started getting tempted with the RE0s now that they're $100. Does anyone have opinions on them, especially from someone who has heard both? From what I've read the IE7s may have a slight edge...

Cowon D2+ might be a good option for you

NE-7M, UHP336 (rebranded superfi 3), RE2, Custom-1, AH-C551 can all be had for around $50. I haven't heard any, but I've been researching in the same price range as well.

Would the ne-8s be a good option for a smaller budget?

I unfortunately don't really have anything helpful to suggest to you, but I am also looking for some thoughts on those same phones. I'm in the same price range and have been trying to figure out whether to get the NE-7M, RE2, or UHP336(Super Fi. 3). So please, bring on the opinions!
