sup tech bros, I'm on a quest to find some dope headphones

I copped some Dr. Dre Beats tours a while ago, but those broke on me twice, so I exchanged them for some Shure SE210s @ Best Buy

the bass is less than impressive to me for $150 though, I guess I'm wondering what are the best earbuds I can get at this price range

I try not to use ear buds. Studies show that they destroy your ears. It's not the exposure to the loud noise that destroys your ear drums but the exposure to loud music from a speaker rooted in the ear canal. I personally hurt my own ears as a result of ear buds. I know for a fact I cannot hear as well as others for that very reason.

Anyway, if you're blowing out ear buds like these:

(aka: some of the best headphones on the market) Then you should probably stop playing your music that loud. It's costing you more than a new set of head phones. I can't tell you how often people ask if I can hear some faint noise and I have to tell them, "no". I can still hear for the most part, but it's really depressing. Another thing, don't use ear buds for sound recording. That's how I used to blow out mine. That's also how I deafened my ears a bit.
