Hi all!
I already asked some questions few months earlier, but at that time I had limited choice. Now I can buy from eBay, so again need help.
As you can see from subject all the candidates are under $100.
The main two conditions are noise isolation and comfort. SQ is also important but not as much as these two.
From what I red from this forum I have next information:
I found a lot of bad opinions about se110, so maybe I have to exclude them from the start.
I know that I can use Shure tips for im716. So maybe I should buy im716 + Shure olives or gray silicon tips? Main 2 questions are:
1. Which of these phones will provide the best isolation (im716 + Shure tips vs um1 vs se110)? I appreciate if you can range them by this parameter.
2. Which of them will provide the best comfort?
Thanks beforehand.

From what I red from this forum I have next information:
- im716
+: great SQ, good isolation
-: uncomfortable (compared with others), high impedance - um1
+: really comfortable (in fact, I couldn't find negative opinions about their comfort), good cable
-: SQ - something like not bad, but not good also
?: isolation - se110:
+: good isolation (like all Shures)
-: low SQ
?: comfort
