Help! Need CHeap Headphone Advice/Guidance!
I know this question has been asked time and time again, but I can't find all of the answers in one question, so please help.
Best earphones under $100?
-Etymotic ER6
-Shure E2
-Sony EX 51/71/81
-or anything else?
I have also heard alot about the Sharp HP-MD33S.
Bottom line is I would like a set of phones under $100, and I am having trouble picking a pair. At one point it seems like the choice is easy (ER6's) but then I read more reviews, and it seems as if I could get comparable results with a far cheaper set (Sony's or Sharp's).
I will be using the headphones for working out mostly. (If that matters!)
Long story short, I am lost and confused, and any advice that you guys would be willing to help me with would be very much appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Please DON'T get the Sony EX-71s -- they're good if you want to block out [most] sound, but I found them to have very shrill highs and the bass is indeed muddy. In fact, I dislike them so much that I am sticking to my cheap $8 Sony earbuds -- the sound may be flatter and fuzzier, but they aren't painful to listen to in the least. I'm looking to get either the E3c's or the E4c's now. Good luck!

If you've the money to get e2c's over EX71's, definitely go for the Shure's. Got mine yesterday, and they've done nothing but impress me.
