Just out of curiosity, but why would you want to spend up to $160 on something so insignificant? You can get a decent set for a lot less than that, like the $50 range.
I bought these under recommendation from RS, MEElectronics M6 Stylish Sound-Isolating Sports Earphones (Clear)

i got these for 34.99 @ the source Skullcandy Smokin' Buds Review | Headphones | CNET UK
funny it says in the review the sound quality aint good, i actually found them pretty decent  and it was affordable and cheap. If you want to spend more, ofcourse that's up to you , i chose to not though because i always seem to lose them

look through head-fi forums
go to headphone bar
that's the general consensus if you want legit advice
you should also state if you want ridic bass for your gangsta rap or want sound quality/clarity

by the way, what music do you listen to and what kind of preferences do you have for playback (eg. more bass, treble, etc)? each brand/model has a different sound profile.
