Best value IEM phones for travel use from Android.


Just looking for ideas and suggestions from actual users of IEM head phones.

I travel..... A LOT!
Even in today's troubled times.
I get emails twice a day from Drop.com and the choice of IEM seems to be staggering and bewildering.

What do I need?
Relatively efficient.
Being driven by a Motorola Android phone only.
Relatively small tips, had some that just did not fit in my ears at all!
Budget... $150 tops.

Thank you and stay safe!

I just got a pair of Grado GR10E....yes they are a changing.  Also, bass depends on the fit.   Although small and med. tips fit, the bass is very different.  When first out of the package, they were lightening fast, and clean....now a bit stodgy, but I suspect they'll come around.  I also have Etymotics, which have perceived more bass, but not a quick.  Sure's also have more bass, but the bass seems to ride the highs and get the  mids "confused". 
Its often true you get what you pay for.   If you have a good source, it would be a shame to devalue the sound with a headphone that might not be up to the job.   I know Grado, Shure, Sennheiser in ear models...all good.
