Im looking for a good pair of ear bud headphones.My price range is no more than $200.I heard many say Shure is good to look into.I would have to say my main requirement, is comfort and pulsating BASS!

If you want something thats enhanced I would just get the beats by dre earbuds.....they are perfect for listening purposes as they are enhanced intensely especially in the bass range.

Have you looked into Westones in-ear monitors?

They also make custom ones if you decide to go that route.

Are these in-ear headphones for DJing or personal enjoyment? For personal listening the Shure SE315s, and Shure SE215s are both great as are the Bose MIE2Is... I wouldn't use any of them for DJing though.

I figured he was stating these for personal enjoyment...and he does want BASS.......if we want real sound than we can just tell him to get the same buds laidback luke uses....Etymotic...

If he wants enhanced bass and sound for the consumer I still vouch for the beats by dre...

Hmmm debatable. They tweaked towards more bass but they don't go loud, and they are very much open so not good at blocking external noise. Good for day to day use but indeed not for DJing

overpriced crap, many other better options for the same money.

I've used some about $100 etymotics for DJing before, but they don't use the exact model anymore. Very much enjoyed it, though mine eventually died the same way all earbuds do if you don't lose them…the wire broke right at the body of the earbud where you can't really fix it.

I'm using my POS $12 skull candy buds for the time being (or my HD-25s) and really enjoying the IEM thing again even though they suck. I'd buy either Shure 215s or Etymotic MC5s, either with custom moulds. I can't really justify the expense of getting better than that at this point.

If you're going to use them for DJing at moblie gigs your going to need closed ear headphones. While these vid's are in search of flat closed ear headphones for live sound he does mention some that would be good for DJ's.
