Previously owned: Beats tour, shure se425, klipsch S4, etymotic hf3, sennheiser cx475

Out of all of those I thoroughly enjoyed the sennheisers and klipsch more than anything. As far as knew headphones go. Here is what I'm looking at to buy.
Possible purchase: Klipsch X10i, sennheiser ie8's, etymotic er-4p, Ultimate ears triple fi 10.

So if you could tell me which one you have the best experience with or whatever your prefer? I'm also looking for recommendations of other types of headphones. I also enjoy tuned dynamic drivers a little more than several Armatures with cross over. I just get a sense of thumping bass, crystal clear treble, and warm sounding lyrics. I do enjoy klipsch's tuned Armatures over all other brands.

Vsonic GR07 would be my recommendation, sound wise it's a bit of a cross between the Monster Turbine Pro Copper and the IE8 overcoming both IEM's weaknesses in my opinion, I also think it bests the Triple Fi 10 as well.

You might want to list how much you're willing to spend @ OP
 
In the $150 range, the Vsonic GR07 and EX600 are highly recommended. I have never heard the GR07. The EX600, however, ranks among the best IEM I've ever heard and is only bested by its big-brother, the EX1000.
 
Upwards of $250-400 you're looking at the UM3X, FX700, e-Q5(7), and EX1000. All of those are quite different and are worth a look at.
 
If it were me, I would either go with the GR07 or EX600 because those have the best price/performance ratio out of all the IEMs I suggested. My favorites are the UM3X, FX700 and EX1000 however.
