NOTE: I updated a previous under $50 thread to an under $75. I'd rather spend less than $50 but maybe I'm convinced after reading opinions. PLEASE HELP, I have to decide soon!
 
After a couple of years using a JVC marshmallow HA-FR36 with no complains I've decided to step up to a new level of audio quality. It's fundamental for me the microphone with volume control and at least decent audio quality for the price. These are my options, and I'll appreciate feedback, recommendations, comparisons, etc.
 
- MEElectronics M Duo ~ $73
- UE600 vi ~ $70
- Klipsch S4i II ~ $68
- MEElectronics Sport-Fi S6P ~ $60
- MEElectronics M9P ~$40
- SoundMAGIC E10M ~$45
- Etymotic Research 3 for Kids ~ $40
- MEElectronics EDM ~ $40
- Skullcandy 50/50 ~ $27
- Stick to the JVCs ~ $12
 
Price reference: Amazon.com
 
Thanks!

Depends what kind of sound you prefer. I.e the UE600vi are more balanced and are single driver balance armature. Audio-Technica CKM500i will provide you with more bass and energetic sound. There is also the Denon 560R which I never heard, but I have Denon headphones with the remote and it works very well, including the mic.
Also, keep in mind that the volume control works only with Apple products.

Thanks! Any recommendations from this list? Is it worthy to go for the $70 heads or more? Are the $40 headphones in this list good enough?
