You have to tell us more about how you like to hear music. Meaning describe what would be the perfect sound signature for you.

Deep solid bass + clarity at high volume + wider sound stage + something that brings out kicks/drums

I think that the H-200's would be perfect for you. I know that you were interested in the GR07BE's, and I realize that the H-200's are to me what I was hoping for with the BE's. Very similar balanced signature and high quality sound, except the mids are not quite as forward as with the BE's. The H-200's have a deeper soundstage though, resulting in a more 3d-like quality and better layering. This all translates for me into a beautifully balanced, full and engaging sound. YMMV of course, but I really do think that you would like them.
Just bought a pair of the re-400s.. Here's hoping they are actually that good.. I've ended up selling all the other IEM's I've had.. Next purchase up will be the h-200s

Lol, I have no knowledge of any seller on eBay. I do have this, though:
http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.1.ZG2C3y&id=15115750167
It is Chinese. You have been warned.
If you could read Chinese (or use Google Translate) you'll find out that they got free shipping to anywhere in China. Comes at about 60 RMB max (or just under $10).
He probably means the seller www-sonicelectronix-com on Ebay, but they won't ship to Australia for free.
Here is a 12.60$ link with free shipping:

WHY??!!! Why do you do this to us Eric? I've had my heart set on the CKS1000s and now I hear you saying these are better?! I may need the nutman approval on these.
Yes waynes world, I think the RE-400 and H-200 complement each other. So did I describe the H-200 right for you? Did I lie? Throw some Auvio tips on that bad boy if you have any.

Huh? The IE800 don't come with double flanges...
I will be surprised if you don't think they are, oneoseven. I'm surprised I love them like I do! You need a good Auvio tip or some nice double-flange ( I like the TDK IE800 double-flanges myself) to really bring the sound out.

@Lifted, the H-200's were built for your sets my friend. The detail and layering of the treble is making whatever track is at the 53 min mark vibes #47 sound pretty thrilling.

Recent cable problems with my TF10s have opened me up for a new pair of IEMs(yay)
I love good vocals so sparkly/detailed mids is a must(TF10s are a let down on this), along with good bass response and suitable highs for certain songs.(I listen to DnB and some rock too) I'm currently considering between the XBA30 and GR07 MKII. Can anyone give a little input? I'm also open to other IEM suggestions around $150-250.

I did consider the BE, but I'm no basshead so I wasn't too sure about it. Did read some saying the GR07 lacking in bass. Would you say they outshine the XBA-30? Cable colour is also a little.... Iffy.

Never heard the XBA-30s, but have heard the original XBA-3s and i can hands down say the gr07 BEs are superior to them in every way. The gr07 BEs bass is not overwhelming at all, and it adds just enough weight to the notes which makes them so natural sounding. There is zero sibilance, harsh/ bright highs after burn in unlike what others have reported on the other gr07 versions. This BE version seems to have addressed all the issues of the previous gr07s, but just added some slight quality bass emphasis.
These are no way "basshead" level iems unlike the Corecoolios, ATH 77X, Sony XB90EXs, Bassos, and the CKS1Ks. They are almost there but not quite which makes it a very satisfying listen. And yeah i feel ya' on that ghetto @ss peppermint candy cable. Lets just say it's cough "unique" cough.
