It's metal. Those are Elecom HH1000, which I bought when I was in Taiwan. You can find them on eBay for around $180. I highly recommend them.
Speaking of wood, I want to try out the
JVC Kenwood HA-FX1100. It's supposed to have good bass, but they may not work well with heavy metal.
Tons of real-world opinions on
IEMs at Head-Fi.
With IEMs, fit is very important. I had pair of Sony MDR-7550, which sounded fantastic but the over-the-ear thing never worked with me and I never got a good seal, even when trying different ear tips.
