Looking for an IEM which is suitable for dance music (e.g. Songs from Tiësto, Armin, Calvin Harris and Hardwell etc...). Is Shure SE215LTD suitable for these kind of music? If not what are the recommendation in SE215 price range?

yup the Shure SE215LTD is fine for this, alternatively you can go for the Yamaha EPH-100 if you don't like the over the ear design or detachable cable

Sorry, I forgot to add in that I want it to be durable as I am using my own cash to buy them. I want it to have a two year warranty as well. Could you please recommend something better? Thank you.

By volume control, I mean media control. Thanks.

the main reason why I recommend these two is because both are the best at your price range (and below 200) for an iPhone compatible one with remote...

If you take care of your earphones properly, it is much less likely to spoil...

since you are looking for bass... these two offer above average bass power...

if you want solid build I would suggest Dunu Hephaes but it does not have remote, so the only two choices are the ones above IMO

My a-JAYS 2 just spoilt 2 days ago, I have used it for 2 years plus. Now I'm looking for a new earphone that can provide me better music quality than a-JAYS. I like earphones that have heavy bass and the clarity of the music cannot be compromise at the same time. My budget is 150 and below, so is there any recommendations? :)

Sorry, one last question. I was looking through the Logitech page and I found the UE 600. How does it compare to the UE 400?

UE600 better Sound Quality with its armature- over the ear hook

UE400 bass head - Flat tangible cable
