Haha, specific requirements I know. Budget not an option as single BA models tend to be quite cheap anyway... I want a nice V-shaped (big highs, big lows) frequency response. Does anything fit the bill?
 
Thanks in advance.

That's a tough one. Let me check my inventory and see what I can find. Be back in a sec...hopefully.

Why the restriction to single-driver armatures? If it's a question of price I believe every week there are multiple TF10s popping up on FS for $150 or so, and they're practically famous for that V-shape you're looking for. I've heard them and they're worth buying, at any case.

The recessed mids of the the TF10 are the reason I didn't keep them for very long. But, that's not to say I didn't like the overall sound. Definitely should be near the top of the OP's shortlist.

Guys suggesting the Phonak Audeo with the black filters - does that have a V shaped sound signature just as compared to the other filters or does it actually have a v shaped sound signature in general?
 
Also, howabout the green (perfect bass) filters - how do they compare to the blacks?

Not sure why you just want a single BA. There are many dual/triple BA's with that sound signature. My suggestions: UE Triple.fi 10 or Westone 3
