Guys - TF10 Vs. V-Sonic GR07 - which do you buy? Budget capped at $150.

What kind of music you hear and what type of sound signature you are aiming for?
They are very diferent earphones I think
Atrio.me is where you get them. The coupon for 50% off should still be working.
Looking for a recommendation on IEMs preferably under $200 new or used. My music of choice is acoustic, folk, classic country, etc. My home speakers are Aerial 5B and my full size headphones are AKG 701s. I have a pair of MDTs and do not like them. For me, they are too bass heavy and lack top end clarity. I've read good reviews on the REzero, TF10, and Ety ER4. Do any of those fit my music, taste and budget?
How much and what do you like about the 701?
I try to put in shipping details and it says they cannot ship to my address which is annoying.
I haven't tried the V-Jays. But I have Koss KSC75's on the Parts-express headband, and also using the Portapro's pads (instead of the KSC75 stock pads). This combination really seems great. The KSC75 drivers are fabulous imo - love the sound coming out of them. And having them on the Parts-express headband is perfect in that sound seems to be the perfect distance from the ears (ie closer than using the ear clips), but still not too tight on the ears (very comfortable - I can wear them for hours). Also, the headband is easy to take off (compared to the ear clips) and it is comfortable to hang around the neck. As far as the pads are concerned, the KSC75 pads are a bit thicker and not as soft as the Portapro pads. I found the KSC75 pads to get a bit itchy when against the ear (using the headband), whereas the Portapro pads are soft and not itchy at all.
This might all seem like a bit of a hassle, but the combo is really great.
Edit:
I just read postrock's review of the V-Jays:

They look like nice earphones, but somewhat pricey (by comparison, the KSC75's are $20). You may also want to consider the Sennheiser PX100-II's (cost less than the V-Jays - I got mine for $55). Postrock's review of them (see above), plus Katun's review of them (see below) convinced me to buy them to supplement my KSC75's (I haven't received them yet though).

What are a nice pair of IEMs under $100 that lean towards bass? I'm stuck between the Hippo VB (which most reviews say are king) and the Monster Turbines (which many reviews say is a great all-rounder). Any experiences with the two?
How about the A-jay Fours or Klipsch S4i? Are there better alternatives?
I, also, seem to read that Hippo VBs have a tendency to ... well be defective. Is this true?
The Monster Turbines, also, seem to be a bit heavy since it isn't made of plastic. How does this fit into comfort?
Thanks a bunch!
