I am not sure if there is a review page just for IEM's that have mics (only ones with mics, not without mics).
For a budget of 60-80 dollars:
Something that can be ordered online with:
Sparkling highs.
Not too overpowering mids.
Rich but not overpresent bass.
Fit for medium large ears (my two ears have different size canals, one is medium smallish, the other medium largish).
durable for a bus rider
Has mic and mic answer button, no need for other buttons or volume.
I listen to Jazz, Fusion, Classical, Hard Rock/Early Rock/Acid Rock/Progressive Rock/Alternative Rock...
Preferrably an easily manageable cable for keeping in pocket.
Long enough cable for use with phone in pocket.
Android Friendly.
Especially good presence.
Don't care about microphonics.
Reasonably durable (last me a year of near daily use, riding buses, subways).
Is this possible? Unlike most here my income is very very low, I just got a part time job and I'm near retirement age. My hearing isn't the best but I CAN tell the difference and I'm a former musician, also.
I just got Some skullcandy ink'd 2 and they totally suck. They were on sale at Dell for 20 bucks and it is a very disappointing sale (but I should know better at that price).
I realize that this forum is for people that can afford 500+ dollar cans and IEMs, and if I could, I'd get some truly good phones, but I can't pull that off, so I'm shooting high for 80 bucks. I'm not in a hurry and it may be a couple months, but something for less would be even better.
If this is lame, I apologize.
