Westone Om2, Om3x, Om1. Excellent at their price points. Natural treble, midrange promient, and on the 2 & 3 bass is featured.
Those are the "professional" models. The "consumer" models are a little bit less transparent and less linear. The Westone 3 is VERY bass heavy. Models 1 & 2 are newest and I've not experienced them.
Westones are known for being VERY comfortable for in-ear phones.
Several years ago I went to a "head-fi" conference and tried all the brands earphones. Westones were the most natural sounding and most comfortable too. Shures came in second, IMHO. Etymonic were a bit lean and detailed - solid state sound, if you will, but I know they have raving fans just like Westone does.
Once you learn to use them - get the right fit for an ear piece and learn to install them properly and get used to them - it is staggering how great sound quality you can get for the price of a medium quality pair of audiophile interconnects.
