Hello, I'm currently looking for a new IEM to replace my Sony MH1C. I really liked its sound signature, being musical and all. I mostly listen to pop, dance & some rock. Can you guys provide me options?
 
What I need is a bass-centric iem that effortlessly produces DEEP THUMPING (I needed more thump coming from MH1C) but QUALITY bass at the same time w/o the use of external amps. That is of course w/o sacrificing the overall sound quality. Big soundstage and better instrument separation is also needed. To make it short, I need the best basshead iems below $120.
 
Per reviews posted, I'm currently looking at these :
 
- Sony XB90EX
- ATH-CKS99
- Yamaha EPH-100
- Denon AH-C300
 
How do they compare? If you guys know a better basshead iem than these feel free to post it here. Thanks in advance!

Try Monster Turbine. Quality with bass.

A little hard to find now, but the Velodyne vPulse are worth looking into. What's better for bass than a pair of IEMs made by one of the better subwoofer manufacturers :wink:

can you guys please give more information about the IEM that you are suggesting? what I am looking for is a powerful BUT quality bass (fast attack/decay), with good overall sq and not just another bassy phone. I need a proper basshead audiophile phone. thanks!
