I've had atrio m5's for about 1.5 years now, and while the powerful and deep bass is amazing for all the hip-hop I listen to, the flatness of the mids and highs has made itself apparent to me recently. I was looking to make a move up to a higher end IEM, and I was wondering what I could potentially look at that has that similar powerful bass element I love, while not sacrificing on the rest of the sonic range. I have an absolute budget of $500, but would prefer not to spend it all. Also, I would prefer IEMs that would be ok without an external amp driving them. I have been looking at 535s, sm3s, w3, ie8s, um3x. Currently I'm leaning towards a triple driver IEM, most likely the sm3, but I'm open to any suggestions to look at something else. Thanks
