Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

Whats your budget?

 
Thanks!

It's prime music time for me so I would probably go up to £100 ($160) but happy to consider anything less expensive or perhaps more.  I think the Bose are just *okay* so i'm open to many options.  
 
I don't like anything like an IEM that pokes into the ear too much so I'm interested in either something like an earphone with a stay-in-clip like the Bose or happy to explore proper headphones with a band (e.g. PX100, momentum on-ear, Sportapros, v-jays, or something from v-moda if it will stay put), or another design like the KSC75 etc.  
 
Anything that sounds great, will take a bit of activity, stays in position, and doesn't totally isolate so I can still hear traffic etc.   iphone/ipod inline remote would be a nice bonus but not essential.
 
Cheers, 
 
Jeb.

My trusted Meier Quickstep receiving from the E-DAC from Epiphany Acoustics with the ODAC RevB playing from either my Mac or iPhone 6+ using camera connection kit. 
 
At this moment playing to Beyerdynamic T5p. Sounds great and the best thing is that it plays from my PC at work, the Mac at home and iPhone when on the road.

An earbud with 320 ohm?!?!
Yes sir, and the more power I give them the better they sound.

ClieOS gave these a 5 star review and I can see why.

I plug these bad boys into my Bravo Audio Ocean amplifier and I am transformed into a transdimensional space goat living on planet fidelity.

Beautiful. I'm curious to see what this looks like with the shures + one with the case closed. Might be one of the prettiest stacks I've yet to see. Interconnect should be more extravagant though :D maybe something like this... http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-5mm-3-5mm-Plug-MP3-Player-Headphone-Amplifier-Interconnect-Audio-Cable-/281095801062?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item41729d88e6
