Any advices on good IEMs with good isolation? I have read a horde of topics about here but didn't find an answer and prices are changing constantly and new models coming. I am looking for good ones to block the radio that is ubearable. I just ordered that Zune from woot, so I will be using them for it, unamped [metal, rock, classical]. I'd like to spend around $50 and would be really happy to spend less [and can go up to $75 if really needed]

Some options I found:
Shure E2 - $56
Maximo iM-390 - $35
Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3 - $60
im616 - $70
ER-6i - $75
cx 300 - $40
v-moda vibes - $60
V-MODA Bass Freq - $35
CrossRoads MylarOne X3 - $57

I can vouch for the ER-6i, which isolates well with the stock tri-flanges. I can put these on during bus trips and barely hear the bus engine.

E2's with foamies - excellent isolation! I use the E2 foamies on other iem's to get more isolation.

CC only? Strange... but cheap.

x2, but I prefer the Comply's.

Comply's? Never heard of them, where can you buy it? Any reviews?

They come with the Ety's, it's another word for foamies, but the style of them are refered to as "Comply's".

If you watch the FS forums you can find some of those for closer to your price range.

I will surely look for deals, but I won't wait for ages with that. It looks like I need many more hours of reading reviews. Anyone knows good shop around New Haven, CT where I could check most of the phones mentioned?

Not true. Comply's are a registered trademark and are a brand, rather than a type - and they certainly don't come with the Ety ER-4P and I'd be suprisedif they were included with the ER-6i
