I have recently opened a thread about getting another earphone of different sound signature, but was recommended that i should upgrade instead.  Anyways, I've decided upgrade from my SE215 special edition.  My budget should be around $500, i dont think i can afford anything more then that.  While i haven't have time to go to stores to audition that IEMs, i have concluded a couple of IEMs that may suit my needs.  I usually use these IEM on my Fiio X3 for commuting and etc.  I listen to Asian Pop, Urban, and sometimes Heavy Metal,
 
Anyways here are the few IEM I wanted decided between (other recommendations are always welcome):
 
Shure 535 Special edition
Westone W40
EarSonic SM64
Senheiser IE80
UE9000
I think I've seen Fitears F111 available, but i believe that store does not have it for auditioning.
 
Someone have also mentioned that i should get CIEM 1964 V3 but i think that is kinda over my budget when everything comes together.
 
The stores that have these IEM i listed are located at different places, so if there is one or 2 that might not suit my needed, i wouldn't want to waste my time going there.
 
Also a detachable cable is a MUST, since most of my earphones seems to break somewhere along the wires after some time.  Good durability would also be a plus.
 
I wanted to make sure about purchasing these IEM as i will plan to use them for a long time.

I'd recommend the W40 or the UE900, whichever of those you like better. :)
