Hurry please! Help me choosing best rocker IEM under $200.

What would be the best option for me for an IEM under 200.00 USD. I'm looking for an IEM with very good bass but not BOOM bass and clear sound. I listen mostly rock music and wil be paired with a Ray Samuels Tomahawk amp. I'm open for your suggestions. Thanks a lot friends.

I am really liking my Aurisonics ASG1 with rock, metal, punk etc. You can get them for just under $200 right now from Springtree. I consider it a bargain.

The Sony EX7550, UETF10Pro, Sennheiser IE8 and GR07 are very good with these genres music and they all offers punchy bass and fairly open soundstage.

UE TF10 is awesome for rock and metal.  Good bass quantity and quality, good highs and soundstage.

Let me just give a word of warning if you are new to this scene. When stepping up to this tier of equipment, you will realize how poor some of the recordings you have are, especially bands that are not on huge labels. Odds are VERY good you will have to rip all of your cds again at a higher bitrate, same goes for your mp3s and digital media.

I would not recommend mp3 for listeners that wants detailed music, 256 kbps AAC (m4a) is recommended.

The VSONIC GR07 would fit the bill perfectly. The midrange texturing makes guitars sound phenomenal!
