Your favorite IEM you own/owned [Explain Why?]

I've decided the last thing I need is another v-shape sound signature, considering I have a pair of triple fi 10's, atrio mg7's, and a pair of JVC fxt90s.  What is the most analytic/"boring"/accurate headphone that comes to mind???  This is my birthday present to myself ideas!  I really am leaning towards the accuracy of the er-4 series, but there has been such a price jump lately...

My current list:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Etymotic er-4

Brainwavz b2

shure se425

SoundClarity

RE0

I dont mind a little punch.  But I just want it accurate, weak if you will, nothing more, nothing less.  Compared to the MG7, nothing has punch

I know I know... I do to... They are quite expensive... not sure if I should roll those or just get another pair of headphones like the UM3 SM3 or W3

Just throwing it out there.

I have owned the gr07.  I have no further statement to make about the gr07's, or eke2k6 will most likely come to my home and assassinate me

I really feel like the er4's are going to be the pick.  Strangely enough, im going to be using them for hip-hop, r&b, Gangsta Rap, Alternative, Indie, Rock, Electronic.  I need something a little more analytic to break the monotony of the Atrio MG7's, and the FXT90's.  I find no need for me to have another exciting sound sig.

People that say the ER-4 has no punch didn't insert them deep enough. 

Insert them deep enough I shall.  I definitely had the second revision of the gr07's.  The ones with the 300 tips practically... My friends was the first rev that just came with a few tips and the more expensive packaging.... That could explain why I liked my friends r07's better than mine... 

How did you know that I wore pirate hats in my spare time!? Apparently there is two revisions!??? This could explain my reasons...
