Best In Ear Earphones that Won't Break the Bank

Looking for a good pair of earphones that I can use with my Mp3 player. I like the idea of noise canceling, and would like to keep this under 100$.

At $60 (for the 9mm driver, $80 for the 11mm) these Skullcandy's are reportedly quite good:

At $60 we have the Sennheiser CX300. Can't go wrong with sennhieser really.

At a special price of $70 (via amazon) we have the v-moda vibe (as reviewed by LR a bit ago)

Are these in your price range or were you thinking cheaper?

I got some Skull Candy earphones from FYE, and they are great. They are just like earplugs with a wire sticking out. When you wear them you cant hear anything else because they have an interchangeable rubber piece that forms to your ear, and they have multiple sizes for the ear piece.

I use them when I mow, I put in the ear plugs, then some over ear protection like you get with chain saws, and I cant even hear the mower

I'll second the Sennheiser and V-Moda (duh) recommendations. I've never used the Skullcandys though. Maybe LR should try and get their hands on a pair. These are some good recommendations though.

I bought them for $9.99, but they were trying to get rid of their stock at the time for a new package for the same headset. they usually go for $24.99.

I love them, but like all in ear headset they get uncomfortable for long periods of listening.
