I'm having a hard time deciding on which one of these to buy. I have tired the EC7GM and their clarity is amazing but I've been hearing good reviews on the EX90s but i dont like the long cord... and as for the B&O i think the EC7s sound better than those.
Or do you guys have any other suggestions for $150- earbuds?

Well the EC7GM is in gun metal and it looks great for guys...but the EC7 sounds a lot better than A8

What's so feminine about the EC7?

Go with whatever sounds best to you. They all are good looking products.

Just realize that you are paying a premium for the looks. You can do better soundwise with IEMs (Shure, Etymotic etc) or headphones.

The stock Shure E2 is the worst IEM I have ever heard. If you have your heart set on open-earbuds I don't see any sub-$100 IEMs offering anything significant over them (besides isolation).

Another alternative is the Audio Technica CM7. They do sound better than the EC7.

A8 can sound incredible if you put it in right..
Otherwise get a yuin pk1/2 from the link on the top of the page
