while the pistons are always recommended in threads like this, the op says his budget is up in the 100-200 dollar range so he could probaby get something even nicer

What sort of sound signature are you looking for? I don't like recommending stuff without knowing that first.

Would those need amps?
Anyway I love my thinksound rains, I just got the usp1’s and like them even more.
Other things to look at are rha 750i’s and alpha and delta d6.

Personally I would go for Monoprice Monolith M300 since I have the Monoprice Monolith M1060.
I'm a big fan of planar headphones and would like to test planar iem

No they don't NEED one. OFC like anything that is worth a damn they are better with one but you don't need it for them to be enjoyable.

emoWhat sort of sound signature are you looking for? I don't like recommending stuff without knowing that first.
Can't really say since I haven't used that much of a variety of earphones/headphones to know what I like and what I don't like so do recommend me different earphones with different sound signatures :)

- solid build quality (solid titanium)
- overall balanced signature
- replacement ear-tips to suit your needs
- CON if you end up using with android phone while out, remote doesn't work.
- Strong midrange
- above average isolation for an IEM
- bass is accurate and controlled but a little overpowered by the midrange
The rest of my IEMs are way over 200 so uh, there ya go.
