Hi! With this, you can consider checking out the Fischer Audio Yuppie, JVC FX101 and the Audio Technica ATH-CKM500. :) The Fischer Audio Yuppie also has the microphone function whereby you can answer phone calls and use for skipping of music tracks.

Thank you also for appreciating our recommendations and glad to know that you like the Moshi Mythro. :) Kindly visit our stores again to audition the demos. :)

Hi! You might want to check out the Creative Tactic 3D Omega which is a wireless headphone that I think can suit to your requirements. On the other hand, if you are also keen for wireless earphones that are to be worn over the ear, you can check out Jaybird Bluebuds X.

We suggest that you try the demo first especially for the Jaybird Bluebuds X if it will be compatible with your source (say if you will be using for your laptop as well). :)

Hi, Fischer Audio Bullet 6mm on promo now at $88(usual $98) and Sennheiser CX300II are 2 of the better value iems around the $100 price point. If you desire more bass then give the JBL S100 a try too. Demos available at out stores.

Any recommendations for IEMs that can mute the mic using the inline controls when used with iPhone 5S?

Hi there! For your requirements, you can take a look at Audio Technica ATH-WM77 and JVC-S400. Upon trying, comfortability can be felt, as well as the isolation. I find that the bass for the ATH-WM77 is fuller compared to the S400 as it is more controlled. You can give the demos a try on either of our two outlets. :)

Hi! To be honest, I haven't tried the Sony XBA-H3 yet but around this price range, you can consider the Audio Technica ATH-IM03. This is one of the new models from Audio Technica's IM series and one of the most popular within this range. Audition sets are available on both of our outlets. :)

Hi, thanks for the recommendations. I had tried Consonance v2 out and I kind of like it. Just wondering is there any cheaper options similar to that, or is there/ will there be any promotion for it?

Hi! Besides the Jabra Revo Wireless, you can also take a look at Bose AE2W and if you don't mind those neckband style of headphones, you can also try the Sennheiser MM100. The Jabra Revo Wireless and Sennheiser MM100 are both on-ear design while the Bose AE2W is over the ear type. All these three you can use for listening to music as well as answering phones calls. Do give them a try first so it can help you decide. :)
