Ok metal heads, I need your help. I love my M-Duo's for earbuds, but their structural design is flawed. Where the cord enters the earbud cavity is reinforced by a rubber grommet. The grommet only has a groove that pops into the body, it's not solid. After using them every day, the grommet is loose.  
 
I wear them under my motorcycle helmet, therefore I need good noise isolation. I've tried 2 different replacements now and they both failed horribly. The wind buffeting my helmet creates a lot of noise. I do have T-400 foam tips that seem to help.

Are you considering getting a new IEM? If so:

Yes, but I exclusively listen to metal. Why I asked here. And to be more specific they need to fit under my motorcycle helmet with good noise isolation.

  None of those would fit under a helmet. In-ear buds or monitors only.

 
No, I mean, you can ask the people who frequent that thread. Some of them are knowledgeable about IEMs.
 
It's probably better to go with an IEM than earbuds since IEMs will give you better fit and isolation.
 
(I don't specialize in IEMs, so unfortunately, I can't help you directly.)

I use westone um pro 30 and I love them. Nothing shrill, very detailed, almost neutral but slightly dark. They're excellent with all types of metal. They're fairly low profile, but I've never worn a motorcycle helmet so I can't say for sure if they'll fit underneath. Isolation is good... I wear them on the train and can't hear anything around me if the volume is right (bleeding ears loud, my normal listening volume).
