If decent bass is a determining factor - the X10 - the Yamaha or the JVC - I think the JVC is pretty big, though.... The others are great phones, but known more for accuracy as opposed to a "fun" sound.
Thanks so much for a quick reply. I should admit that, I am looking more for the "fun" factor than the analytical factor, as I am not an audiophile at any level.
So as per your advice, I have trimmed my list down to -
Yamaha is my top option.
Is there anything I should consider in this list? like spider realvoice or something like that?
your expert advices are greatly welcome and highly appreciated. Thanks.

Yamaha eph-100 for bass. Or you could look at the Future Sonics Atrio M5, they have very good bass.

Maybe the Dunu Tai-Chi? I find it has plenty of bass, what genres do you listen to?
Almost all types. But particularly, Pop, Jazz, Blues, Classical, country and World. Not really bass crazy, but I like to have decent bass to increase the "fun" factor. I have further cut down my options to below two.
I read stunning reviews about JVC as well. so making my choice difficult.
Meantime I will take a look at Dunu & Atrio.
thanks guys.

I might take back my Dunu recommendation then, they are excellent for hip hop and rap but the treble is kinda of piercing i guess you would say? Maybe someone else can chime in.

From the genres you listen to, I suggest you don't get the atrios. You should look at the x10 instead, they're very "fun" to listen to with ample bass and a good tight isolation. The Yahama and JVC are very bassy iems, may not fit your type of genre well. Goes better with dubstep, EDM etc.
So I am adding X10 back to the list.
So it's the same list again. X10 vs JVC vs Yamaha. I have 2 days to finalize one of these.
tight bass, smooth& better details, decent mids and lows, good separation and great soundstage. These are what I am really looking for.
If I am not asking for too much for my budget, i need something which can really surprise me. (its easy, i haven't used many iems before).
Thanks a lot to all those replied so far.

It's not possible for you to audition IEMs in your country? I think an all rounder would be the x10. The other 2 are more on the bass heavy side for bassheads
No. I live in Canada.
okay, I have dropped Yamaha now. 65:35 on X10 vs. JVC

It does look like the male genital. But if you can cast that aside, the fit and isolation is superb.

I have noticed that feedback posted on Amazon. Personally I beleive that guy is new to in-ear earbuds, particularly those isolation ones. If you are a over-the ear headphones guy, and all of sudden if you try these isolation in-ear ones, they create lot of soreness, I bet. Once I tried my friend's Etymotics (don't remember the model), even my first impression was similar. But once I started used to it, I was really amazed by the SQ they offered. (though low on bass) I still have one day left, (saturday I am planning to order) to decide. So at this point I am with X10. Being a user of their S4 before, I am more worried about the quality of those thin cables. Mine worked for 2.5 yrs before the cable ripped off. SQ was good but not too exciting. I hope X10 offers better SQ with tight bass. Thanks to those who responded to my request. more suggestions are welcome.
Okay, after going through some more threads, I have brought Atrio back to the list and dropped JVC. So finally its between Atrio and X10.
I understand the Atrios are for bassheads, but I don't mind if it doesn't mess up the overall sound quality.
Experts any comments?
Thanks.
