I am looking for my first IEM:
I would like something with good (very) isolation,
good bass ( clear and deep ),
and for a 100$ price,
less would be good, more a bit hard but who knows !
Please do propose what you like.

Whatever you do, don't get the Shure e2c's.

I have a pair of e2c and was *very* happy with them for oh.. about 2 years.

Sony EX-90....and mod them. Take out the foam, put some shure blackies on the tips, add a shure wax filter, tape off the ports, put some foam covers on the outsides.... the only thing that sounds even close are the UE Super.fi.5s..... The bass with them is INSANE...so surreal and very very tight. The isolation may be the only thing you would complain about....which is pretty much completely fixed once you block the ports, but you still hear cars honking at you (this happens to me a lot v_v). But if I were you, I'd try out a few IEM before I buy....because everyone here listens to a lot of different styles of music from different sources- too many oppinions, but only one buyer. Good luck.

To answer your question quite literally: the best is the iM716 in all regards except soundstage. Any differences of opinion are composed purely of subjective sound signature preferences, as it is technically peerless in the sub-$100 bracket.
