How much bass do you want? BE is not that bassy while JVC and Shure have more to varying degrees.
 
Duoza, Titan 1(closer to the BE), Altone 200(if you like the JVC FXT signature). Why the FXT90 for $100?? I thought I saw the new FXT for $100(http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-JVC-HA-FXT100-Hi-Speed-Twin-System-In-Earphone-Japan-Free-Shipping/301529113284?_trksid=p2141725.c100338.m3726&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20141212152715%26meid%3Da73217e9433f4fb0974f05249546fdee%26pid%3D100338%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D28%26sd%3D281573165926)

http://theheadphonelist.com/headphone-list/  This is my main reasons for choosing the above headphones. All of them are based on this. When I google for the best IEMs under $100, those are the highlighted ones.

I heard that the GR07 Bass Edition edition is the flagship devices and had very good reviews. I didn't select it based no the name "Bass edition" hoping to get a lot of bass specially. They also come with this Fit Kit with foam tips and many others.


Google never showed any of the FXT100,FXT200 . Thanks for bringing them for my attention. I guess they are relatively new. Never saw them before......!


Now I have 4 headphones to compare ). (guess the FXT90 is out of the picture)

Head-fi is the best bet. Joker can't really keep up the newest stuff nor should he have to esp. since the market blew up so much making it impossible. You can read, if you haven't already his description of all of the three SE215, BE, and FXT in his 332 multi-IEM review thread. They differ quite a bit so one is bound to appeal/interest you more.
 
Yes, even the higher FX650 can be found for close to that BE price. FXT90 should be out of the picture since the newer ones get impressions that they are better...http://www.head-fi.org/t/739418/jvc-ha-fxt100-ha-fxt200-ha-fxt200-ltd-hi-speed/60#post_11262367
 
Newest stuff is here mostly...http://www.head-fi.org/t/586909/the-discovery-thread-new-first-look-at-the-zero-audio-duoza-iems-by-ericp10-page-1817(though new stuff is in the latter part of the 1900 pages)

 
Of course pick the best reviewed/touted earphone that has a signature you like or prefer.
 
FXT200 seems a good choice if it sounds good to you. You seem to have an interest in the 90 and these come with the good clip, case, and spiral dot tips, price is good now, and they should be less dry, more fun than the BE(like the FXT90) but improve the technical ability over the FXT90. They do have a good form factor for easy fit and comfort as well. FXT90 is well regarded mostly and they took a long time designing these new ones. A solid choice to start with to go along with the BE and whatever else you find. SE215 should be dropped as it is beaten by some $40 and $50 earphones in sound now. A Tenore, VSD5, or T1E are better than the SE215.

I've read that the FXT200 sounds even better than the FXT90. So I am hoping to buy the FXT200.
