Beats by Dre Tour Microphonics

Let me first say that you are a brave soul for saying that you "upgraded" to Dre's on here. I salute you for that one.
 
With that said... Microphonics are hard to avoid with IEMs. Some aren't that bad, others are terrible. I haven't had too much experience with Dre's because well.... I tried them, and hated them. Every single Dre I ever placed in the vacinity of my ear I have disliked for one reason or another. However, I've had many IEMs, and all had microphonics problems, some less than others. My current HJE900s are the best I have had, and the microphonics are barely noticable.
 
I personally think you should have upgraded to some version of the Turbines.

Yes, there is some noise when I turn my head but not an incredible amount compared to other IEMs. It is just kind of a given that any IEM is going to have this annoyance. You could try positioning the cable behind your neck or use a shirt clip (if you have one from another model).

I had the tours, they sound pretty bad...as well as horrible microphonics (not as bad as the ER4)
You should really do a proper upgrade:)
