As i have several posts scattered with different information for the IEMs I am looking for and the information you ladies & gents need to give you much appreciated advice. I have shrunk it down, but hope the below is enough for the advice that is really required as in I will order the IEMs this weekend as my old pair died on me!

Budget would be around $300
If a dream pair for my Electronic Music, EDM, Drum and Bass etc etc would be a little more, then I can save a little more.
Based in the UK so IEMs in Europe would be great, but am happy to import. These IEMs will be listened to every day so really want to get it right!

All of these would be good info to help us help you’
Good Evening!
The music will be electronic based music with everything from EDM, Drum and Bass, Trip Hop, Drum and Bass, Vocal Based Drum and Bass..Lovely female vocalists, even on Dubstep, Euphoric, Breaks, Trance, House, Orbital, Chicane, Prodigy and on and on. I have a love of all music, but am happy to have a couple pairs of IEMs that are suited to different needs.
I have a portable amp, AudioQuest DragonFly used on my mobile OTG, on the laptop but am looking to get the JOT for my desktop setup to power my hungry cans. I have no issue with a high impedance pair of IEMs if they satisfy my need amigo!
As mentioned several times, I am very new in this World, hence why I asked for help. The sound signature I am looking for is what would work best with my choice of music. Shameless bass, but am hoping that with spending more, the bass, sub bass can still be controlled with minimal bleed, bloat and with control and enjoyable through to mids, upper mids and highs. Trebles and the Highs for the vocals throughout the Electronic music genres.
Good Isolation Please - Any knowledge on tips to buy to try, experiment would be great!
I hope the above helps in the questions you may have for advice on which IEMs to check out. If I have missed anything, let me know.
Cannot thank you all enough.
Cheers
sorry forgot about this.
sony xb90
sony ex7550/800st with tape mod
both of these are very smooth but need an amp and eq to sound its best.
jvc fx1100
this is a good iem with big soundstage, needs eq to really bring out the bass. its discontinued, but still can be had new for around $350, $200-250 used
no amp or eq, i would suggest the Radius nhr 21 (discontinued) or radius nhr 31 (have not heard these personally). sound sig is a v-shape, which means the mids a little recessed and the high are little brighter.
