Perhaps the Monster Turbine pros or the JVC-FX700s.

Both are good at metal.

I'll prefer Shure SE535 sense it has better vocal and tone which fits my music style

IE80 also looks good, but i don't have one.

SE535 imo. IE80 has a crap and veiled midrange in comparison.

What does imo mean?

With the ie80. What does the sound tuning capabilities mainly effect with the sound?

Bumps up the mid-bass a lot for a more thumping bloated bass, but also bleeds into the already veiled midrange frequencies.

thanks for your help ProjectDenz it was much appriciated.

I think I'm being over dramatic. The IE8/IE80's midrange is not that bad. It's just that the SE535 is such a better allrounder for different genres of music.

the instrument performance on se535 is only okay 
esp the drum sound is really not okay

I've owned both, and I prefer the IE80s.  The Shures did sound great, but they weren't aggressive enough for my metal music while the IE80s provide that "crunch" and heaviness that I wanted. 

Most of the reviews say that IE80 has the widest sound stage and also the most bassy IEM.
May I know if IE80's bass is "quality" or "quantity" bass as comparing to Shure SE535?
May I know if IE80's huge sound stage is natural or artificial?
 
Can you also let us know in term of vocal & instrument separation, which is more superior: IE80 or SE535?

I just love how people use the phrase 'veiled' without qualifying what they mean. Does that mean a lack of definition? A coarsening or thickening of the tone? If that is the case then you would definitely hear it with a single human voice which of course is produced in the mid range of the audio spectrum. I am listening to a Schubert Lied and don't hear any of this at all. Just a clear and sparkling reproduction of a beautiful soprano voice. I have the bass settings on the ie80s set to minimum. Could a different setting on ProjectDenz's ie80s cause this 'veil'?
 
People have been making veiled criticisms (pun intended) of Sennheiser phones for years. I wonder how many of them have actually heard them for any extended period of time?

IE80 in my opinion, for bass.
