Hi, I need a good set of in-ears or buds for mobile use. I have a pair of Koss KSC75s, but I can't use those outisde of my room due to the inasne leakage. So with that in mind, I need to buy some nice GOOD SOUNDING buds or in-ears for somewhere around $50ish preferably, and I'm hoping that these will sound better than my KSCs and become something that I use around home as well. I listen to a lot of alternative, indie, acoustic, techno/electronica,pop, some r&b, etc, and basically anything but rap. And as for sound characteristics, I like very tight and clean bass that's impactful as opposed to boomy/sloppy, yet I'm not a basshead, I'm after something that sounds very natural, smooth/liquidy, is widespread(as if it's comming from my surroundings and not from within my head), sounds very "big", punchy, and thick while still having pleasant mids and upper frequencies, minimal or no sibilance, and also has a musical flow to it that's rather fast, fun, never boring, and not bogged down. If that actually made any sense and is of any use, which out of the following would work the best for me? Any other suggestions, and is it safe to say that the cheap Sennheisers don't match up to the in-ears or the Sony and Audio Technica buds?
1) Sennheiser MX450
2) Audio Technica CM3/CM5
3) Sony E888
4) Etymotic er6
5) Shure e2c
