Looking for an iem with the least amount of microphonics. I realize that using the over the ear method a la shure is a quick fix but would still like opinions.
I was close to purchasing the ety 6i iems but was reading that they aren't so good with the microphonics. The um1s seem to be right in my price range and reportedly are very comfortable but i haven't heard much on the microphonics.
the superfi 3 seem like a cheap alternative but they seem to stick out of the ear quite a bit and i don't feel like having to mod my iems to get them to do what i want (flip mod).
v-moda vibes seemed to get a lot of recommendations but apparently the 2nd gen aren't that good. The ATH-CK7 seem interesting, prolly not as good of a seal since its a dynamic driver but thats ok. Im more concerned about them falling out cus they seem like they are a bit heavy. I listen to mostly indy rock and my price range is sub $100. Would be awesome to keep it at around $50 so i could feel comfortable using them for active use (gym/skating). Comfort comes first, then SQ. Thanks in advance.
btw my source will most likely be a sansa clip or fuze if that helps.
