Looking for some earbud recommendations

My trusty SHS3300's failed, compared to the SHS3200 quality took a nosedive.

Two pairs in a year, however much I like the sound & fit; it's getting hard to find them and quite expensive.

I'm on the fence of getting the Sony MDR-XB510AS but feel like they might fall out all the time.

They do come with multiple sizes to try and mitigate that, other issue I read about is wind-noise while biking as some say they stick out; catching quite the amount of wind.

I guess my ear-shape must be an odd one, as any earbuds I used before those Philips ones kept falling out or the fit would get less snug and I'd lose most low-end punch.

 

Anyone has some good recommendations?

Specifically :

  • Good/deep bass
  • Usable while biking/walking; being active
  • Options to get the right fit (Earhook/Multiple sizes)

At last,

Might it be worth splurging and getting the Sennheiser IE 80 S?

To me they seem like the premium version of what the Philips, I think Linus also used them at some point and loved them? Could be wrong about that..

I could get by for a few months with Apple Earpods I have lying around.

 

I'm not really bound to a specific brand, I'd say every recommendation is welcome :)
