I'm looking to buy an inexpensive (less than $100) pair if IEMs, I listen mostly to metal, hardcore and melodic hardcore. Also, if there is a particular thread I should be posting this, please give a link. I also plan on mostly using these for walking in the Winter, so it'd be good if they were still comfortable while wearing a beanie/toque over my ears.

Do you mean <$100?

I recommend the Hisound Crystal, Soundmagic PL50, Dunu Crius.

How good are the PL50s for hardcore?

 

[ostewart]

They are great, not the biggest in terms of bass, but they have great speed and clarity

Those DUNUs don't seem too bad for wearing with a beanie (I'm mostly getting IEMs in preparation for Winter haha) either, how do they sound compared to the PL50s?

 

[ostewart]

They should sound slightly more refined and airy compared to the soundmagic. Both are detailed and fast, with tight punchy bass.

Alright man, thanks for the help. I guess it'll come down to which of the two I can find a better deal on. Unless you have a good final reason or two why one is better than the other!

Dunu has better build quality, soundmagic are more comfy.
