Hey! I am looking for the best earbuds I can find for under $100
I previously owned Klipsch S4i, and I liked it, the sound was great and all. It broke while working out.
I been researching for a while, especially from this website, and I seemed to learned that the VSonic GR06, HiFiMan RE-400, and Shure SE215 are favorites for under $100
I'll use these earbuds for normal usage, PLUS when working out! So I need something comfortable..
Rock is basically all I listen to. All kinds of rock. From Alternative to Metal.
I like the VSonic GR06 and all, but I am unsure if they can be worn normally, or if they MUST be worn over-the-ear like the Shure SE215?
 
I was hoping for finding earbuds with Apple controls, but its okay since I couldn't find anything decent besides the Klipsch S4i II.
I am aware that I can get the wire with controls for the Shure, but that is too expensive.
 
So what earbuds are the best for under $100?
If the ones I listed are no good, please tell me what you'd recommend and WHY. Thanks!

You should take a look at ljokerl's iem comparison:

Can't really help you decide since I only have the GR06s (also the gr06s have to be worn over the ear).

Thank you!
 I moved my thread here just if you wanted to know:

 I viewed that link, and the ones I listed seem very close, which is why I was hoping for more personalize reviews, you know?
Thank you for letting me know about the gr06s!
Do you like them? Would you recommend them to me for the price point? Or do you regret it and wish you bought something else?

Although I prefer my yamaha eph-100s, I still use my gr06s everyday. The sound quality is great for the price. Although I don't think my opinion will be of much help since I don't really listen to a lot of rock or metal.
