~$100 earphones

I'm looking for a pair of earphones for my birthday around the $100 mark +/- $20, any suggestions?

 

One of the main reasons I'd like new ones is because my current pair is very annoying if the cord brushes up against anything and they don't even compare to my ATH-AD700  :P

Little bit over budget but worth it is the Westone UM Pro 10.

I've already got a pair of good around-ear headphones... but yeah the HD558's are way out of my range  :unsure:

 

How about these? http://headphones.com.au/psingle?productID=722

I'd rather recommend something from Etymotic: http://headphones.com.au/pbrowse?catID=1&brand=Etymotic

These Shure SE215 are pretty nice for a first pair of nice in-ears
