I saw these 3 earphone in Stereo's website.

Not having too much budget, so considering either 1 of these 3.

Would appreciate it if you can give some reviews or pros & cons to these earphones.

I would be using them on my ipod or my samsung phone.

Thanks

Why not just head down to Stereo to demo them? At the end of the day, it's about your preferred sound signature.

Your iPod or Samsung phone is able to drive them sufficiently.

In my opinion, the Shure 215 is pretty bassy, and the connector is terrible to deal with.

The BA200 has good clarity and is slightly bassier than the TDK IE800, though not as bassy as the Shure 215. However, the flat wire and over-ear may require a bit of getting used to.

Perhaps you'd like to add the TDK IE800 to the list to demo? I definitely find it a great IEM at the price.

ts, when listening to se215 take note of the bass. see whether it is muddy to your taste or not and whether you can accept that flaw. i have that and klipsch x10. initially i was able to accept that as it sounds very clinical. but after using x10 for a period of time, i couldnt go back to it. day and night diffference. have no comments on the other 2 pairs.

Comparing all 3 the Shure SE215 will have the most bass. The BA200 personally sound more balanced to me as compared to the Westone 1. :)

BA200 has the higher-fidelity sound compared to the other 2.
Would pick ba200 over se215 anytime.
Do take note that se215 cable is removable

Actually if you can, go try out the vsonic series from lendmeurears.. They have a cupboard at toy outpost for you to try..

A caution though, there are quite a bit of complaints about their after sales/ warranty service.

For your budget the gr07 fits perfectly but the vsd1 is a marvel especially at that price
