What headphones do you use with your iPhone?

Okay so from looking and reading up on stuff I have these ones that I'm thinking of:
RHA MA750i
RHA S500i
RHA MA600i
Klipsch x6i
Klipsch r6i
Klipsch r6
Klipsch r6m

I'm not super concerned with bass, just want a nice crystal clear sound and any I listed are within my price range.
I'm going to continue looking at some reviews on them.
Any more help that can be said is appreciated

I like the Bose ones but not sure they would be comfortable in my ears

Guess I have some more researching to do.
Just trying to find the best set I can for under 200.
Still looking into all of them

All of the headphones I mentioned were under $200 with the exception of the X10i's when I bought them, the X11's now being under that.

What is nice about the x10 / x11's is they are very small and comfortable to wear, a little lacking in bass though.

My favorite go to right now are the RHA M750i, great sound, just enough bass but not over powering and at $129 not a bad deal.
 
I am using 64Audio CIEM

I really appreciate the help.
As I have no way of testing them out, would you recommend klipsch or RHA? I really like the look of the klipsch, But I normally like foam tip ones better and not sure if either have them, or different sizes and whatnot.

I really like the look of the x11i's and the reviews are great

They are both great sounding headphones and the X11’s really do look great.

I don't think you can go wrong with either of them.

It is really personal preference, there are advantages to both.

X11’s are small and compact and use a different driver set up, the X11’s use a balanced armature, which can be a little thin on base, you said you were not a bass head I so this might work for you.

RHA 750’s are bigger and uses a dynamic driver (a very small speaker) which tends to be a little warmer sounding and have a little more bass.

Another advantage to the RHA 750’s at least for me is that they have ear loops that go behind your ears and keep them very secure, some people don’t like this set up, but I do.

Both come with an assortment of tips 3 sets (S,M,L) for the X11’s all oval shaped silicone

The RHA’s come with 9 sets of tips including both foam and silicone.

3rd party foam tips can be bought for the X11’s

I personally use the Shure Se 215 in hear monitor , i have the 425 as well but prefere the sound of the 215 (i know it should be the other way around but it is my preference)

Se 215 have more bass and are a little more confortable to wear for longer period because they are a little smaller(not a huge difference).

As for headphones I use the Shure SRH 440 (i have a thing for Shure :D)

I have a few which I use, most in-ears with my iPhone -

Bowers & Wilkins C5 S2
Sony XBA-H3
RHA T10i
Sennheriser Momentum In-Ear

However today I'm using Beats Tour2 Titanium
 
I still use the included earphones most of the time, although when I'm at home, sometimes I'll use my Sennheiser HD25-1 II. Though the right cable sometimes needs fidgeting to work properly =/
 
thanks for all the comments. Been looking up at a lot.

Haven't heard the powerbeats

Just remember you won't get the same sound quality out of a wireless pair of headphones.

Wired headphones will blow any wireless out of the water at the same price point.
