Have you used either one of these IEM? I'm considering one of these among a couple others. I listen to rock, alternative and classic jazz.
 
EDIT: By the way I'm looking at the Monster referbs on this page. Any thoughts about it?

I don't have any experience on the two IEM's you mention.  I'm sure others will chime in. 
 
Note - new DiddyBeats were recently available from Amazon on a Gold Box special for less than the Monster Outlet price
 
I have purchased from the Monster Outlet store before - both experiences have been fine.
- refurbished Beats Studio headphones for $130 - re-sold and turned it into new AT M50's & Klipsch X10's
- refurbished MTPC for $100 - these are keepers
 
I had to return the original pair of Beats Studio's for a cracked hinge - the warranty return process on the refurbished unit was painless.
 
Based on what is usually in stock in the outlet store, if I wanted to buy another set of IEM's, I would most likely be looking at the Turbines for $50.  I have them and other than some minor build quality issues, they sound fine.

The Tours have way too much spongy, inaccurate bass and extremely weak highs. Oh, and they are also terribly uncomfortable, have no isolation at all and look horrible.

Diddy Beats just have too much bass. I recommend you the Apple In Ears (not the Earpods or Earbuds). They are awesome for dance, folk, pop, heavy metal. rock and alternative. They have a very dry, clean sound with very tight and accurate but weak bass. Their highs are a crisp. Especially female singers like Rosemary Clooney really shine trough these 'phones. Hope I helped!
