As the title says I'm looking for new IEMs. I would like them to sound good in all those genres and I have a few songs where I like to turn the bass way up (close as possible to the bass of sony xb-500s). I'd like to spend around 70 dollars, but I would maybe be able to spend a bit more (I'm 15 and no job so I dont have a lot of money.) One thing that's really important to me though is that they have low microphonics because I would like to wear them while biking, longboarding, running and lifting weights. Thanks.

I don't want to sacrifice the mids and highs too much because in a lot of music I like there's barely any bass at all. Thanks guys

The mids and highs are still good on the E212.

I got the E212 for a review 3 weeks back and I got my T-Peos H-100 yesterday which costs over USD100 but out of the box, the E212 sounds much better. Maybe the H-100 hasn't been burned in yet. The H-100 has a very V shaped signature and though the E212 is advertised as a bass-centric IEM, the mids are a lot better than the H-100. I haven't heard any IEM that gives you this good SQ for the price as the E212. Another good thing about it is that the cable is not very long and is braided, so it would be suitable when engaging in physical activities.
 
The E212's are brand new and so far I've only seen it on sale at ebay from HiSoundAudio. Highly recommended.
