Can you enlighten me about the wearing characteristics of IEMs between 60 and 120$
(Denon AH-C351/551, Sennheiser CX-95/300/435/500/, AKG K-324-P, Sony MDR-EX90LP, Philips 9850, KOSS KEB 79, SHURE SE210, BOSE InEar, V-Moda Vibes, JBL CR 220, Beyerdynamic DTX-50 ...)
a) Which models isolate the auditory canal completely (making audible body noises like breathing or stepping). Are body noises more or less noticeable with certain models or is this an inherent feature of complete isolation?
b) Which models let leak in muddy sound background from outside (e.g. you can hear that someone talking next to you but don't understand what he/she is saying) in the way closed full-size headphones do?
c) Which models let leak in most outside noises, maybe to the point of open full-size headphones (AKG 701, SENNHEISER HD-595 etc.)?
d) Which models are most susceptible and which most tolerant to tips getting out of place (jogging, gym etc.) or not fitting perfectly (i.e. SQ immediately/hardly deteriorating)?
e) Which models involve most/least fiddling when placing them into the ear?
