Hi everyone,
I always like to keep a pair of sub-$100 in-ears for use on the go, straight from my iPhone. I like to keep the price low since they inevitably get trashed over a year or so of daily use, and I need an in-line mic and playback controls. After browsing around, I think I’ve narrowed the field down to these contenders (though new suggestions are, of course, very helpful):
Apple In-Ear Headhpones (dual driver)
Bose MIE2i
Etymotic Research mc3
Klipsch Reference S4i
Ultimate Ears 600vi
I’m especially interested to hear from people who have experience with two or more of the above and can offer a ranking, with some explanation. I listen to a wide variety of music, and I prefer a neutral presentation.
Thanks!!!
