So, I've gone through a few different IEMs over the past few weeks, and I have the same problem with all of them; no matter which size or pair I try, the left ear silicone tips always fall off. I've had more success with foam, but I want to know if there's something wrong with my ear. Does this...

I understand there has been a bit of a backlash to the M50 because of the price hike. What can I get with is around $120 with a fun sound and maybe a bit of a V curve?

Opinions?

I often listen to music in a private room enviornment. I am looking for something which is comfortable for long listening sessions without being fatigued and for around $100.

Quote:   The price must be a leading contributor to the dramatic loss in popularity the M50 has faced on the board. While I would gladly pay $119 for them if I were ever near B&H and could purchase them there, $159 is way too high for them. What is good at the ~$100-120 price range...

I haven't been on Head-Fi since early this summer because I was content with my SE215s, but of course I grew out of those and returned out of curiosity. Much has changed since I last logged on. Most notably, what has happened to the M50? The price has gone up to $159, compared to a little over...

I have the problem that many people are having with their Se215s- the sound is dropped when the driver is rotated and one of the ears is quieter than the other. What should I do?

The memory wire on my SE215 is itching my ears. Help?

i agree with miles davises. how did you get half price?

Do you think they'll like Monster Turbines?

under $100 iems

What's a good introduction headphone for friends and family still using iBuds and Skullcandy? We all have some of these friends/ family members. To sway them, looks and price are important. What should I use?

Can someone help with the memory wire? It's just... difficult on so many levels. 

http://makeprojects.com/Project/Custom-Fit-Earbuds/199/1 I'm scared about what may happen to my eardrums so I wanted some opinions before I try it.

Monster Turbines are pretty good and Shure Se215 seems to be getting a lot of attention on Head-Fi and was recommended by Jude for being bassy and fun.

Where can I get these and how much will they cost, and most importantly how will the sound/isolation be like?

What headphone is the "sweet spot" for you in the balance between audio quality and price?              I'll start. My sweet spot would be the Shure SE215 for $100. It's very good at a price that suits my wallet.

I know Shure SE 215 seems to be all the rage FOTM on Head-Fi right now, but which of these two do you prefer?

After putting it off, I finally want to try some Grados. First and most importantly, which pads are the most comfortable and which sound the best? Also would you prefer the SR-80is or MS1is?

Deciding between these or Eterna v1s or Shure 215s for bassier IEMs under $100. Which of these (along with other bassier IEMs) would you recommend?     Can someone also give me their opinion on neutral IEMs under $100 too?

Quote:   The MIA albums /\/\ /\ Y /\ and Vicki Leekx are also a great bass tests. So much so that it's sonically damaging!

Creative Aurvana Live (Denon 1001) Alienware Ozma 5 (Ultrasone HFI-550)   any others?

I own them and they are decent not considering the price but good when you consider it's only ~$30
