Hi guys i know i asked this before but i didnt much response. I'm looking for a mid- high end earphones thats great for music and gaming. I currently use the Shure e2c earphones but unfortunately one side is gone. I'm looking for some sort of noise cancelling with good bass and i'll be able to hear where the enemies are coming from. no more than $150 please
thank you

A lot of nerds like the Ety GX400s. The RE-0s would probably be a safe bet as well, but don't expect bass from an IEM and gaming potential with IEMs.
