Is there a good quality earbud for around $60? I have nice circumaural headphones but their portability is non-existent (earpieces are far too big to go around my neck). I'd like audio quality to be there of course, but I realize some has to be sacrificed for you can't fit a 40mm speaker into a 3mm space
. It looks like $60 is a popular range for brands like Sennheiser, Boss and Koss.
I was looking at these
Sennheiser

H2O (not really needing waterproof though...)

Bose

Pioneer

Koss

I'm looking for something that matches (I know, kinda girly, but I'm a graphic design student). I'm looking more for something in Silver, Black, Red or a mix. I'd prefer a rough brushed steel look but glossy is a close favorite. I don't want them to look plasic glossy, more glass or metal glossy. If it costs me a few dollars, but not many dollars so be it. If this is any indication of brand I like to listen to heavier, eventful sounds. I frequent Classical like Mozart, Beethoven, Bach and the like. I also frequent bands like Muse, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Audioslave, Coldplay, Radiohead, and many indie bands like Spoon, Modest Mouse, The Flaming Lips and so on. I also like Techno and Electronic like Basshunter, DJ Tiesto, Justice and a few of the more electronic hip-hop artists like Kanye West, and Kid Cudi. I know this is a wide range (maybe even a strange range) of musical tastes, but I like me my music!
Thank you for your help in advance.
