Forget my previous recos then

Jaybird JF3?

Or you can try Sony Ericsson MW1 as well (since it has a MH1 attached to it, and the Bluetooth module can be used as a MP3 player as well)

For $50 to $80 - try out the Accutone Aquarius and audio-technica CKM500is

I wanna upgrade from my current Sennheiser CX281, plz give recommendation!

- Other requirements (Doesn't matter whether if there is no mic or volume control. Would prefer 60% bass and 40% clarity)
- Budget (Less than 150SGD)
Can try out the SOL REPUBLIC AMPS

After some consideration i was pondering between shure se215 or westone um1.

Which is better for a wider range of musics ?
Wider range of music genre the SE215 is better =) Also do try out the TDK IE800

Planning to check out Stereo @ ION tomorrow. Was using Senn CX300. Quite satisfied sound quality wise but felt that it wasn't really that value for money.

Please recommend!
