Hi, I'm new to the forum. I'm looking for a new pair of earphones to update to. I have a pair of turbine by monster and i find them way too bass driven and the highs are sketchy. I'm looking for a pair of headphones with a flatter response rate. I listen to classical and vocal music most of the time. I want a pair of earphone what has crystal clear high and if possible, warm boosted mids with good noise isolation and normal or smaller bass. I have $350 to spend. 
Are there any earphone out there that focus on the highs and mids instead of deep bass?

It sounds like you'd like the Audio Technica CK10, which will be in your budget and have pretty ecstatic reviews - both for the sound, and their build quality, comfort and noise isolation. I have the CK90Pros, which are like their darker, thicker brother, if the sound of the CK10 sounds too treble orientated for you then I'd recommend them for a bit of a chestier mid sound. Other then that, the DBA-02. You might get recommended the RE0, but the mids are slightly recessed on those. 
 
If noise isolation is a huge factor for you, you could look at getting anything from the Etymotic series, like the ER-4P.
 
Welcome to Head Fi btw :) Sorry for your wallet.
 
An amazing resource for new comers is joker's huge IEM comparison, where you'll find reviews of all the earphones I just mentioned:
