Hey there,
 
I've been doing a little research on a pair of IEM. I was looking at the SE425 w/ mic cable or UE900S but they are just slightly over budget. What would you recommend that has an inline mic and cost $300 or less?
 
My music ranges from rap to pop to classical but a lot of vocals. Help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Anything with a mic is dependent on your source.  Apple or Android?  If Android, what model.

Android, Note 4. The mic feature will only be used some of the time. Maybe the SE215 Special Edition - which is same as the Limited Edition? The Special is much cheaper than the Limited on Amazon.

I use hf3 (three button) with my iOS and Android phones. Etymotic hf2 is similar with only one button. Both have great isolation and SQ. My musical tastes lean more toward the classical/jazz/guitar (acoustic & electric). The Ety sound signature is neutral and can be a disappointment if you are expecting lots of bass.
 
Cheers... Brian

If you are looking for just the ue900 blue cable with mic, I have a brand new one sitting around. I also have a non-mic cable as well. Let me know if you are interested.

I agree the hf3 is an amazing iem if you are looking for accuracy in the tracks you are lisyening to but if you want tons of bass they wont be for you.
