Hello,
 
since I've been using my Sennheisers for what feels like a decade, I finally want to upgrade to better sound/build quality. 
I am willing to spend up to € 100, but staying more around 50 would be even better.
 
What's important to me:
- good, durable build quality
- good noice cancellation (daily subway rides)
- shouldnt be too big cause of my ears
- microphone would be a plus, not a must tough
- I wanna use them for music as well as movies sports on my ipad or laptop
 
In terms of sound signature I'd love to have a decent amount of punchy bass, strong and present vocals, no screetching highs. And an airy/open sound would be nice as well if this at all possible with IEMs. 
 
I would appreciate any advice on this!! Have been looking around for different models but it's pretty hard to figure out what really fits my needs since there are sooo many in ear headphones out there. 
 
thank you

As a starting point I was looking at the following models:
 
- SteelSeries pro; € 60
- Yamaha EPH-M100; € 90
- Hifiman RE-400; € 80 (might be too neutral sounding for me)
- RHA MA750; € 90
- Beyerdynamic DTX102; € 70
- Sony MDR-EX650APT; € 60
- SoundMagic ES10S; € 50
 
Any thoughts on that and how they would fit my needs?
 
thanks
