Altec Lansing inMotion iM716 (headphones)

Pros: Price, Clarity of Sound,Decent Bass

Cons: Clip is terrible,In-Line HD/Bass/Volume device weighty

Summary: I just got these from Amazon for $49 incl shipping! My first pair of IEM's, and so far I'm very pleased. I'm using the tri-flanges, but will soon move to the foamies to determine which is best suited for me. Did come research on www.head-fi.com and at $79, they said it was a steal. Most reviews place these above the etymotic er6i's in overall balance. I have nothing but the standard Sony buds that came with the NW-e507, to compare them to, but they sound awesome right out of the box. I have yet to use them enough for the "burn in" period some people say occurs, but if the sound never got any better, I'd still be happy! $49 and free shipping for quality IEM's cannot be beat...ebay included. Plus you get a 2 year warranty when you register. I initially was looking into the Shure line, but they priced me out of their line, especially when the Amazon sale was found. I'd seriously give these a listen if you are in the market for a higher-end sound at a marginal price.
