Hey!
 
My SE310 died some months ago and I tried the Monster Beat but wasn't satisfied (they hurt in-ear ><).
So now I am searching new ear-phones to use it with my mp3. I don't really know what should be better for me, I mostly listen to house music, trance, rap, hip-hop or rock sometimes. I guess I like basses 

 but not too much. I tried some bose headphone and sometimes it was a bit too much as if the low were only present...
 
I was looking for the SE425. I can't spend much more than 300$ 
 
Thanks for suggestions!

The SE425 has a really flat frequency response, so it might sound great for someone and bad for others.
I'd say Klipsch Image X10, or Phonak Perfect Bass.

Don't get the SE425 if you want good bass response, as yliu explained--it aims for a flat frequency response. I would recommend the Monster Turbine PRO (good, but a little expensive), HifiMAN RE252 (excellent value for the price), EarSonics SM3 (good balanced bass response with excellent mids and highs).

I can have the TripleFi 10 for 190$ or the Turbine copper for 195$. Which one would you get?
