Need IEMs for ~Rs. 700, Marshmallow?

I just lost my SoundMagic MP21s, very sad about it. Now I need to buy another pair and I'm not really looking forward to spending too much (I never have, except my beloved MP21s). I'm not a very good owner of headphones, you see. (Got my EP630s destroyed in the laundry, lost my Skullcandy Ink'd).

Now I'm a bit confused. Below Rs700, from my research, the best are the JVC Marshmallow (~Rs 600 shipped).

Now what do you recommend, should I get these? Would they be way too much of a downgrade after the MP21s (which I found very very nice). Very importantly, how do they handle metal?


Or if you think the Marshmallows are rubbish, and it doesn't make sense buying them? Maybe I should swallow my worries and go and buy CX180s (which have excellent reviews), and hope for the best? (Rs1250 shipped).


If you have any other suggestion for below Rs700, please do tell

(Incase you're wondering why I bought the MP21s and not PL21s, it's because I was desparate for a button, I find it handy to change songs and play pause music without taking the phone out. But I've concluded there are no good VFM headphones with a button. Would love someone to prove me wrong though)

You wouldn't be disappointed in the CX 180s but the connecter comes loose in a years time.

I am still in touch with Sennheiser CC about the replacement / repair policy. They have a 2 year warranty.

Why not try the Pl11's. I own both the marshmallows and the Pl11's and comparatively love the Pl11's for the VFM they offer. Both are priced between 500-550bux.
