IEM's $75-$100 Maximum

[Sebastian G]

I'm looking for a good quality pair of IEM's that will last me many years of wear and tear in my pocket and messes of tangled wires. Linus's (or Linus') review of the Sennheiser IE80's is pretty much the perfect pair for me. Anything similar to the IE80's would be perfect. I don't need the adjustable bass because the price would exceed my budget. A decent warranty would be nice because some factors make my headphones break (dog, water/sweat, etc.).

For a very long or lifetime warranty, then I would be able to go above budget.

IE60's supposedly sound similar, as far as I've heard.

I don't doubt it, but they're $250. Kind of above my budget, thanks though

These are very popular for that price range.

And there's also the Shure if you like the look and build quality a little more.

The Shure ones look great. Any info on a warranty? I'm gonna keep looking to see if I find it.

Its between the Shure's and the JBL's. This is gonna be a tough decision

[ShearMe]

The Shure's have a detachable cable, which can improve longevity, but it is a cheap replaceable cable, which introduces another point of failure. Needless to say, I've heard mixed things about their durability.

[dantheton]

The shure are a safe bet if you want something similar to the ie80 at the price point.

 

Don't forget to use the affiliate link on whichever you buy, which I already linked. ;D

I have had the SE215's for a little over 2 weeks now coming from a pair of broken Turbines. 

I can say they are by far the most comfortable IEM I have tried and the isolation is amazing. Sound quality is very warm, but not as punchy as the turbines.

 

IMO, go for the Shures, the cable is really sturdy, replaceable and comfortable and they sound great.
