Best sub-$200 in-ears? Replacing Reference S4i

[wehungthedj]

Hey all. Not sure what info would be helpful so here it all is:
 
Use in-ears primarily at work and commuting/on-the-go, used to love my Apple In-Ears and then used and liked the Meelectronics CC-51p a lot. Those broke a few years ago and I've been loving my Reference S4i's with Comply tips ever since. Lately I want something different, which it's now time for since I've misplaced my Klipsch's while moving.
 
I'm a musician who listens to primarily guitar-based music and electronic/hip-hop. Bass is cool, but isn't important. My main focus is clarity and to hear everything. It would also be pretty great to have volume control.
 
So far I've been looking at the recommendations from The Wirecutter--Sony XBA-C10IP, which are discontinued, and now the Beyerdynamic MMX 102iE, also the RBH EP2--, Klipsch R6i, Etymotic, etc, but haven't gotten blown away by anything yet. So yeah, any help would be awesome. Thanks!

Surprisingly, I'd recommend the older Shure models -- wider soundstage, great clarity, and fit (compared to the current models)... If you can find a SCL4 or SCL5 on amazon, those two are in my top 5 universal IEM's of all time (including the K3003i)!
