    Pros: Great sound level, terrific highs, easy left - right identification, tangle-free cord, less than $100 online.

    Cons: Bass can be better, no mic if used with cell phone / mp3 combo, no foam options for ear buds - can't use doing physical exercises <will fall out of ear>.

    Summary: I have a pair of Shure SE530's which I love to use on my commute to and from work in NYC, and wanted a decent pair of headphones I could knock around with at the gym or doing some more physical activities <I'm a bit hesitant to use $400+ headphones at the gym>.

    I love dance / hip hop music, and heard the Turbines were great for reproducing deep bass. Overall they are okay, but the fit just doesn't compare to those of Shure's. If they came with foam ear buds, my tune would change I have no doubt.

    Yeah Comply has foam ear tips, 3 packs for i think, 15? They also have a new one that prevents wax but what ever, these tips are pretty good

    "Bass can be better"... These have a lot of bass compared to other IEM's. Infact, a bit too much really. I'm guessing you didn't use the right tips for your ears which is also why they're falling out easily.

    i would invest in the comply foam tips. i had a problem with fitting for these but the new tips make all the difference.

    Where did you find these earbuds for under $100 online? I want to buy them but the cheapest that I found them for is $139.
