I recently lost my Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5vi. I absolutely loved it's sound-stage and clarity of mids and highs. It's lack of bass was compensated with a powerful equalizer, delivering accurate, deep, powerful bass. I absolutely miss it but I don't have enough to buy another again.

So based on the Super.Fi 5, which of the IEM's below have the closest similarity in terms of sound-stage and clarity to it. The choices are limited to those as my budget is limited and those below are the available IEM's for that price range.

Jays A-JAYS 1
Jays A-JAYS 2
Denon C252
Denon C452
Denon C260
Denon C360
Ultimate Ears MF220
Ultimate Ears MF170vi
Sony XB series ( Both XB40EX and XB41EX )

Highest priority is the clarity and smoothness of mids and highs followed by the soundstage. Lack of loudness in bass can always be compensated by the equalizer as long as it produces precise deep bass. Fit is not a matter.

Thanks very much for the help.
