Hello Heaad-fi'ers.. 
I'm looking for a new IEM for my ipod nano(5th gen.) for ~$100. 
I got addicted to my new XB500's bass. So is it possible to get an IEM in sub $100 range that has bass as XB500 with wider sounstage?

The HSA Crystal, Radius DDM, HJE900, Sony EX310 and CKS70 are recommended.

You say BASS? These will surprise you and only cost $20.. Try one out. They will sound more complete than the XB series as well. I actually have the SONY EX41B which is the earphone equivalent to the XB500 but these JVC HAFX1X out thump those and have forward mids and complete highs.. Shockingly great. Try one out you have nothing to loose.. Yes I am a fellow Bass head.

Not wider soundstage, but hell a lot more bass than the XB500's would be the TFTA 1XB's
I know its more than your budget but worth thinking about if you like it :)

I own the TFTA's, owned several in the past (see my profile) and own the XB700's
TFTA's > everything else i've ever heard, especially in bass! :D

Nop - same company though - never tried those ones you linked, but the ones I'm talking about are:
http://tfta.eu/online-shop.php
 
You can order directly from them, rather than via amazon
(Seems like amazon has ran out of stock for the 1XB's)
 
but not the 1V's:

They have less bass, so that's why i suggested the 1XB's instead
