Hello. I am looking for a pair of portable headphones to use on the go when I'm on the train, on the university. They must have controls (Back, Forward buttons). I love my Hifiman Re-Zero, so I would want clarity and a good soundstage with much details. I don't want too much bass. I also like my Sennheiers HD 595, so if the soundstage is more like Sennheier (more warm) that would also suit me. 
 
 
Up to 100$

That's gonna be a tall order for a $100 ceiling. If you're married to the price range, then the Klipsch S4i may be the way to go. If you could do $150 then I'd recommend the Shure 215 with i-controls.

They're certainly very clear with great separation. I wouldn't say they have a big soundstage, it's rather average for an IEM. They're hard to beat for dual BA under $100.

Just so happens that I have a NIB A151 for sale if you're interested.
