The bass on Ultimate Ears Metro.fi 2's is great for the money. I have the Super.fi 5 EB also which cost 3 times as much and sounds muddier IMHO. It is a little deeper and louder, but with only $50 the Metro.fi 2's are your best bet. Check out Amazon:

I have the ep-630 and I can tell you, they are probably the best for the money, usually running you ~$20. The bass is punchy and the mids are quite good for a pair in this price range. The highs leave something to be desired, but that's expected. The only beef I have is with the microphonics, very pronounced whilst moving around. If you happen to have one of those clips that holds it to your shirt, I would imagine it would help greatly.
A note on the bass freqs... I haven't tried them but research tells me there is a tradeoff; more bass but less rich mids using the ep-630s as a reference.

I'll second that on the V-Moda Bass Freqs. Massive bass and cheap too.

I've had all 3, and though they're all similar, there are improvements as you go up, for instance, the bass is tighter with the akg's.

It's fun here. Different music, different DAPs, and different IEMs will fit different persons with different tastes.
Just enjoy this process.
