The type of music that I listen to is generally a soft rock w/ some pop.  I generally like music like Sting, Rob Thomas, Gwen Stefani,
Adele, etc....I liked the Ety but found the cables were flimsy.
 
I have been frozen in headlights with buyer's confusion for the last few weeks with and need to order a pair to replace my Ety ER-6i. 
 
I would only be using these earphones with an ipod.  I have read that some of these require amps and equalizers.  Not an option.
 
My budget would be $50-100 but obviously I would prefer to spend as little as possible.
 
I did just come across the fischer silver bullet but don't know where to get it.
 
What of the three do you suggest?

Dmitri at MusicaAcoustics.com is carrying some Fisher Audio products, not sure about SB.
 
A good option for under 100 USD is Fisher Audio Eterna or Hippo VB with removable plates.
