What are the best headphones for under 150$?

Hey, I'm trying to find a good pair of headphones to replace my zune premiums for under 150$ dollars. I would like them to be in-ear headphones. Any suggestions?

I just bought a pair of Head Direct re0's after reading many good reviews on head­-fi.org. They are amazing. They compare pretty well to my Denon d1000 (full size cans) which get good reviews themselves. I've had the V-moda Vibes, and they just sound too bassy without much detail up high. I recently went to the Apple store and compared the re0 to the Monster Beats, and have to say that I much prefer the sound of my re0's. They don't have as much bass or as sharp highs, but just sound so much more balanced. The knock on these are that they don't have enough bass, but to my ears, they sound just fine.

These headphones used to be $200, but are now $80. They compared well at the $200 mark, and are just unbeatable for their current price. Whatever you end up with, I hope you find something you like!

I have heard great things about the Phonak Audeo PFEs, they may be worth checking out. (gdgt.com­/phonak­/audeo­/pfe/)

I know Shure is well-known for making excellent in-ear monitors, so you may want to check out their stuff as well. (gdgt.com­/shure­/browse/)
