Never tried them but heard good stuff about them around

im also interested to buy an iem because my apple earbuds will slighty become worn out. 
 
damn! i'm getting frustrated about this headphone hunting thing. my wallet is also broke man! 
i have been searching for the right headphones for me about a month now, i think. and i haven't decided which one to get.

For IEM, I think you should hold your breathe for the Sony XBA-H1

how much is that?  i think its over $100? 
my budget for iem is only $80 or maybe $100.

another question: 
 
can i recable some iem?
 
if yes, can you name some of them ? 
 
i got my eyes on the tdk eb950 but based on the reviews, i think its cable is a little bit fragile. and i wonder if i can recable them if anything bad happens.

Hopefully they will drop it to less than $100 during the official launch or by the end of this year xD

Isn't those the fitted with the same BA as the XBA-1 ( Full Range only) they made a few years ago?  If so I would pass on them and see if you can get the XBA-2 or XBA-3 ( The 3 is a lot better with a Full Range , Sub Woofer, and Tweeter ) on Ebay. I got the XBA-2 on ebay for around $65 Shipped and I love them ( They are real) and could find the XBA-3 on ebay for around $90-$120 from what I seen

I am guessing Sony is using Sony XBA-10 BA + one of their monitoring IEM driver + some technology to match them = XBA-H1 
 
Indeed! I will highly recommend the XBA-3 if you can find them for around $120~ 
 
I got my XBA-4 at around USD 200 when my parents were travelling to Japan. Still loving it for portable use although I have not been using them for nearly a week as I do not wish to have isolation while I am at home

wish that the xba-3 is available in my country. the xba-1 cost about 70 dollars here. haven't tried them though but i've heard that they're mid-emphasized.
 
how's the isolation of the xba-1 ang xba-3? 
i want to have isolation when im at home, especially when my mom's scolding me. lol

I have heard good things about the Koss portapros as a light portable compact setup.  My preference for under $100 would be the Sony MDR-V6.  The sony doesn't fold up as nicely or compact as the Koss, but it does have good bass to it.

yes, portapros are very nice for their price. i have heard good things about the MDR-V6 too. unfortunately, its hard to find here in the philippines.

With the stock, they isolate pretty good! With a ComplyFoam... Excellent isolation xD
