Earphones £80-£100 for an iPod?

[Apple254]

I am somewhat new to higher end headphones. I have previously owned a pair of Sennheiser CX300's and a pair of over-ear Sennheiser HD485's. I've finally decided that I want an upgrade for school as I always have to turn the volume up on my earphones to drown out external noise on the bus. I was looking at Westones UM1's, UE Super.Fi 5's (standard not E.B or Pro) or the Sennheiser IE6's. Does anyone know anything about the IE6's I can't really find any reviews. Anyways any help is much appreciated for a 'n00b' such as myself thanks again

Might be worth checking out the Denon C700/C751's too.

Superb build quality and great sound within your budget.

Thanks for the suggestions, just I liked the idea of the earphones going over the ear...

You can turn the earphone and run it over your ear, yknow....

Yes but with the denons that were suggested it doesn't look like it would be very comfortable.

The Denons are not designed for over ear cable routing - although, as mentioned you can tun upside down.

Once in the ear I havent noticed a lot of difference in comfort between over ear and straight down cabling to be honest.
