I need help picking earbuds.?

I am looking into the urbeats from beats by dr dre which sort of deliver what I want which is that bass since I listen to a lot of music that is good with that bass. Also there are the Klipsche image s4 that I am looking into also which can play more types of music but not as good bass as the beats and not as durable. They both aren't very durable from what I hear. I only have up to $100 to pay on earbuds and I would need some help choosing. Thanks.

    If REAL quality is an issue, please go for REPUTABLE brands only such as B&W, Sennheiser (most affordable), Shure, Grado, Denon, AKG, Audio-Technica, Etymotic or Beyerdynamic. Things like V-Moda, Klipsch, Sony, Panasonic, JVC and Philips are ONLY "okay-ish" indeed. Please do NOT fall a victim to FASHION ACCESSORIES by buying Sol/Republic/Revolution, Noontec Zoro's, Benetton, a-jays, iFrogz, Marley, Fanny Wang, Razer, Karl Kani, WESC, Turtle, JH, Dr.Dre/Beats/Solo, Ludacris/Soul, Koss, Skullcandy, Lady GaGa, Skullcrushers, Monsters nor Bose, because they are ALL seriously overhyped and overpriced "fashion blingbling gimmicks" with a very poor durability and sound quality, NOTHING else (and those who try to claim they are good do NOT know ANYTHING about QUALITY anyway!), BE THEM FAKE OR NOT!

    Also, please do NOT go for the overly thumping bass that only distorts everything else, focus on GOOD sound quality and durability IN GENERAL.

    You can't go wrong with the Klipsch Image S4. Mine are as good as new after two years use and going through the washing machine, so they're plenty durable. The bass on the Dr.Dre phones is almost too excessive imho; it will exaggerate the bass in your music. They're also quite overpriced..
