Hi! you can try the Shure SE215, the bass is prominent but not much, sweet mids and highs and outstanding isolation. 99 US (amazon). If you want more bass, you can try the Meelectronics M6 (or M6P for mic and in-line remote) but it don't have the resolution of the SE 215 and it have a u shaped frequency response (and somewhat sibilant highs). 19 US (amazon).
 
Cheers!

I can't recommend these personally, but some currently popular stuff in that price range to look into: Audio Technica ATH-IM50 and IM70,  Dunu Titan, JVC FXT and FXZ series (I have FXT-90, it is a very nice all rounder imo, and well regarded on head-fi, but discontinued- unfamiliar with the current versions 100 and 200 and the fxz whihc have an extra bass driver), Sony XB90, RHA 750, Zero Audio Carbo Basso/Tenore/Duoza, Ostry KC06, Vsonic VSD3.

+1, RHA 750 and Vsonic VSD3 (and VSD3S) are apparently great headphones too. I have to add the GR02 Bass Edition to the recommendations.

Oh totally forgot about the famous GR07-  I have been reading a lot about vsonic, but a little reluctant to try because complaints about the build quality....

A good thread to ask this question might be here where the crazy IEM collectors lurk http://www.head-fi.org/t/478568/multi-iem-review-338-iems-compared-brainwavz-s0-added-05-30-15-p-1060

GR07 is great, tho they might be a bit over 100$. The best sound for the money I've heard by far, really close to 4 times more expensive Sennheiser IE80 I use... If I had an opportunity and knowledge of them I'd buy them instead. 
 
 
So grimr3aper if you can hear them make sure you do, really good set of earphones for the price!

Of the current models I think the Classic version goes for around 90... though people seem to generally prefer the Bass Edition, I guess, which is 120-ish

If I want exciting sound, I use my DUNU Titan 1 - very open soundstage with great clarity, conservative tight bass, and prominent treble for female vocals. They remind me my AKG K612 a lot. Most often I prefer the RE-400 for the overall relaxed and more universal balanced sound.
