Well, CM700 does not
lack in the bass department - not at all. In fact, it has the best bass quality of any earbud I've heard so far, and better bass than most IEMs too. The bass is really, really fast, detailed, tight and very deep, and the quantity is neutral. The bass quality and quantity is sufficient for all types of music, unless you are: 1. a basshead in the sense that you don't understand what accurate low end is supposed to sound like, or you have hearing loss in the low registers; 2. you can't get a good fit, which admittedly is not easy to get with CM700, especially for those with smaller ears; 3. you are trying to run CM700 out of a really weak source and I mean the crappiest of crappy MP3 player.
CM700 is very sensitive so it will run fine with all but the weakest portables.

But I've read far too many good things about the CM700s here, and too little about the the other two so it was an obvious choice in the end. Though, the AKG's did get a glowing review from a few dudes here. I guess I can try those next time.

Good choice. They are definitely one of the best earbuds out there and a great deal at the current prices on ebay. If the sound signature will seem too cold and analytical to you, or you won't be able to get a good fit, then I recommend saving up for a Yuin PK1 - a very fun sounding earbud with slightly less bass precision than CM700, but still very high quality by earbud standards. PK1 also has sweeter mids and a better extended treble.
