Hello guys. I'm looking for a new pair of IEMs or headphones that sound different from my current ones. I currently have a pair of Sony MDR-V6 for home use, ATH-ES7 and M11+ for portable use. I listen to mostly R&B but I listen to many other genres too, including electronic, some rock, and a little classical. My budget is around $100. I can go a bit more, but I would prefer not to. I will be running this out of my laptop(Asus G51JX) and my iPhone 3GS. I have no Amp/DAC and will not be getting one soon.
My preferences for headphones are that it has to be circumaural because I find supraaural(ES7) to be very uncomfortable. A long/detachable cord would be nice so I can plug it into my TV. I would be using them in my dorm room so it doesn't matter if it's open or closed. I have never tried a pair open headphones, so I'm open to suggestions.
I am open to IEM suggestions, but I am leaning towards RE-0s because my current IEMs(M11+ and V-Moda Vibes which I never use) are bass-heavy and I would like to hear more details.
