Hey guys, I was wondering if you guys have any recommendations on a good set of headphones with great sound quality and a tight base. I'm looking to spend around $50-$100 and it has to be in-ears or ear-bud.

V-Moda Vibes or V-Moda Bass Freq are pretty good value.

The V-Moda Bass Freq if you really like your bass. Cheap too.

those skullcandy ear budz from the source are surprisingly decent.. only around $25 and if u get the ext warrenty for 3 bucks, theyre covered for 2years over counter exchange if anything happends to them..

my buddy spent $80 for in ear sony headphone and honestly cant tell the difference between mine and his.

they have good bass and are comfortable as hell, and sound dope with an ipod.

Maybe use the fucking search button? There's even another thread on the same page as this one asking the same question, which links to an older headphone thead, which links to yet another old headphone thread.

for in-ear I'd go shure or low end ety's in that price range

Creative EP 630.
I think you'll have to buy online, as I don't know of any Calgary stores that sell them.
I've had mine for more than six months and no issues whatsoever.

Good value for money.

Ety ER6 or ER6i are the sweetest. In-ear with great sound. Just make sure you buy a couple of replacement foamies or flanges. At highway speed on my bike they sound great. They're being licensed under the Harmon Kardon name at Futile Shop these days.

Do you mean Shures?

they are good but expensive.

Maybe look of eBay for some Shure or Bose ear buds

Shures are reallllllyyy good. I love mine and I just got them today. Very rich sound from my IEM's. They have great mid and high's but the lows are still lacking a bit. They are much more expensive than I would like, but I would say that the price is justified.
