Didn't want to revive an old thread called something very similar... Question is still the same though, recommended canal earphones please! I have some Shure E2C's which I have enjoyed the quality of, unfortunately the thick cable which have always protected me from breaking them has gone brittle where it normally curves most and cracked open! (Disappointing to be honest!), also always had a problem with 'just' my right ear, where the 'phones kept popping out of them
I'm very impressed with the JVC Marshmallows to be honest... they cost about £15 (I usually use Shure e5c for 20x the price!)
I've been very impressed with these: http://www.trustedreviews.com/mp3/review/2008/03/05/Sennheiser-CX-95-Style-Canalphones/p1
Yet another recommendation from me, Denon C-700s. Read around on all of the ones recommended though ^.
I've always had really good luck with Skull Candy's headphones. I particularly like their "Smokin Buds" in black. http://www.skullcandy.com/shop/smokinbuds-p-10.html?zenid=6355e7d4c2ee0b39ed24ea53dfb249b4 I know they have some...well ugly styles, but usually you can get plain black.
i have the Sennheiser CX 400 i`m not sure how much there are but in the shop they were £50~ i got them off ebay for about £20 [inc delivery] and to be honest i wouldnt pay more for ear phones but i would highly recommend these the bass is good and the sound is clear.

Here's the link for the retailer where you can buy these: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000POFA1A/pgceret-21/ref=nosim BEST OF ALL, THE DELIVERY IS FREE.
I can also recommend the Etymotic ER6i. One thing; don't expect massive bass with these buds as that's not what they are about. You will hear a lot more detail with the ER6i's, I prefer to use the foam eartips as they are easier to fit and more comfortable and do a better job of blocking out external noise - get replacements as they need changing after a while!
