Im debating between sennheiser ie80, ie60, vmoda zn ,shure se315, klipsh x6i,and athimo2 which will give the best sound for rock? I do enjoy to hear the bass but not outrageous amounts so that its boomy or just a rumble the bass has to be quality I do like a nice balance my favorite over ears are sennheiser 558’s and my favorite in ears were the klipsh x4i which is niw discontinued other options that may fit the bill are appreciated as well but budget is about $300 cad equivalent $230 US thank you in advance.

You might have a look at the Echobox Finders X1's. They tend to be on the brighter side but I don't find them fatiguing but if your sensitive to highs you might. They have very nice and controlled bass with plenty of thump when need be and good soundstage with great detail.

You might also check out the Dunu DN-2000. It has a fun and exciting signature that is detailed and actually rather impressive. You might read about it and see what you think.

I owned the VMODA until I destroyed them. I would describe them as warm overall, which is pretty much the opposite of the Dunu and the Fidue--those are v-shaped. Exciting. Fun. But they are all good. I really liked my VMODA. I haven't heard the mee, sorry.

The t10 and the t20 are both very good. The t20 are clearly better, IMO, but whether it is worth the extra cost only you can determine.  ---)
