Hifiman RE0 Is pretty good, and my AKG K340 in ears are fantastic.

-edit-
RE0 is supposed to be amazing from what be heard, and the k340 is stunning for the price

1-5 are all super close
 
1) AKG K702 - Love the soundstage, love how smooth the mids are, great treble. Enough bass for me
2) AKG K167 - Tighter bass than the denons. Still has the smooth akg mids which I love
3) Denon D2000 - Love the bass and the big sound and resonance that it has
4) Grado SR80i (with L cush and tape mod) - Love how intimiate it is and the wall of sound that you're hit with
5) BMF Spec Fostex T50RP - Very smooth all around, nice extension
6) Sennheiser HD280 Pro - By far the worst. They were good when I first got into headphones but just don't do it now.

I've got the A151, Philips 3580, Monoprice 8323 and 8320, and the Panasonics. I'd say of all of those, the Philips are my favorite for clarity, fun, and comfort. The A151's lack too much bass for me and i'm far from a bass head.

the UE 700's are excellent for the price. Same with the Philips 3580 for a SOLID and FUN budget IEM, and the HiFiMan RE-ZERO's are simply AMAZING and a beautiful listening experience for great value.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the consensus regarding single BA drivers, is that they lack that bass "punch" that DDs provide. I love the value that the SHE3850 provides; such a capable IEM at such a low price. Right now, I'm on the hunt for those super cheap TDK's haha.

Ha, ha.... I'd rate those the same way ..... and I haven't even heard the Momentum   :)

They have more of a fun sound signature, which I quite like when I'm on the go. Obviously they cant reach the he500, but thats a completely different level :D
