Is there an IEM that gives great bass (quantity and quality) but doesn't give up anything as a sacrifice?
 
I listen to rock music and am looking for IEM's with good solid bass, nice mid range and highs, big soundstage. Something that will be giving me a natural sound, and not artificial.
 
Thanks,
Ken

How much are you willing to spend and do you want mid-bass + deep bass or just deep bass?  
 
I think the Wan Xuan i9pro custom IEM would fit the bill if you don't want to sacrifice anything and have a lot of bass.  It fits everything you are looking for perfectly.  The JH16 has plenty of deep and fast bass, but the ultimate quantity isn't as much, although close.  I think the i9pro sounds a bit more natural overall.  The FX700 has a lower price and performance is also below the i9pro, but it is still good and fits, to a lesser extent, what you are looking for.

I would go with the Audio Technica ATH-CKS77.  They can be had on ebay for around $50, but they are factory rejects, and take a bunch of effort to get them to sound okay.  Going with the slightly more expensive ones, like from ace_of_bicycle on ebay will be factory fresh quality ones, and the sound is fantastic.  Great bass and sub-bass, smooth mids, and clear highs.  The bass on these IEM's was exactly what I was looking for with IEM's and I'm sure they won't disappoint you either.

Actually I had bought a pair of Shure 535 last week. They sound nice but lacking in bass. I just got a pair to try of Grado GR10 and their is more bass but I think the overall sound quality of the 535 is better. Does that make sense?

Have you ever try the triple flange sleeves on the SE535 ?  
 
With that sleeves ，the SE535 sounds even better~~~
 
As far as i am concerned，the SE535 has more bass（quantity） than the GR10

same problem here. the se535 lacks in the subbass region.

I'm really enjoying my ie80. The bass can be tuned but with a good seal you don't need to turn it up much if any at all.

westone 3s are good all rounder with good amount of bass. equalizer will also get rid of the mid bass hump.

Try the ultimate ears 350. Tons of bass but not lacking everything else plus for the price its hard to beat them..
