Headphones

I know there have been millions of these threads, but search wasn't bringing any up.

So... I'm also in the market for some new IEs.

Previously I've been loyal to Sennheiser, but I've read mixed reviews on their top-end IEs. I'd like something that is primarily suited to EDM, but also other genres.

Has anyone got any recommendations? I am currently thinking of one of these.

Shure SE535
Sennheiser IE8
Audio-Technica ATH-CK10

or what about Klipsch?

Any info appreciated.

technically speaking those are earbuds not headphones per say. maybe i have low standards but anything above $20 range with rubber inserts meets with my approval. for the record i own Sennheiser

Yah, I posted in the other thread, but I doubt it'll get much response in the 'DJ' Booth.

Any advice would be massively appreciated...

with any speaker/headphone you first have to decide whether you want neutral or added bass. aside from that you have to decide what you need them for. I find earbuds uncomfortable after an hour and wouldn't spend a lot because of the abuse they take and they're easy to lose. I prefer over the ear except for when I'm on the move. Decide how much your willing to spend and then read the reviews of the headphones in that price range.
