IEM Recommendations for Work

[3 Minute Reviewer]

Hey! So my Thinksound ts02 are starting to bug out on me (zapping me ears - OUCH!). I'm looking for a new set of IEM's that I can bring with me to work, just a desk job so they don't need to be sweat proof or anyting. Any suggestions here? Hopefully something a little less bassy than the Thinksounds but not way overly bright. Under $100 as well - thanks! 

 

EDIT - a mic would be awesome as well!

are you using them for noise cancellation, listen to music or to make phone calls?

I use them to listen to music and make phone calls on occasion so an in-line mic would be good too - but mostly for music. I work near a lot of people, I don't mind sound getting in but I don't want sound getting out and disturbing others.

you could try this one as its only $10. but personally, i would go with headphones instead of earbuds.

I really need to portability of the ear buds since I am an auditor and I do a lot of traveling and don't have my own office/cubicle where I would be able to keep them. Any other suggestions as far as IEM's go?

I can't recommend the KEF M100 enough for its comfortable fit and its neutral EQ. There's no harshness in the treble, no dip in the mids and no boomy bass. It just sounds "right". 

 

They normally sell for $150. But if you don't mind buying used, you can get them for $70 on Amazon.
