I've asked a few times now and have read loads of threads. I keep seeing a list of earphones people are recommending but as soon as i look on jokers super review thread (which is amazing  TY!) he says the bass is just kinda... there  he doesn't ever say like  WOW the bass really hit's you or anything... which keeps putting me off. Unless of course i find a nice pair and... brilliant.. they're not available in the uk so i have to start all over again.
I think the best thing to do is give you an example of the music i listen to and ask you what you would think the top 3 earphones you would personally recommend. Hopefully this way i may find a pair available in the uk. (Also just a side note..i was thinking of getting the hje900's but they're are litrelly double the price in the uk which is annoying the hell out of me). I want to bass to be good enough to tickle my ears (like the bose but better qaulity.. and i'm not an expert what so ever so have no idea on if this is alot of bass for iem's... i have no clue lol)
Here's my example (may not be your thing but it is mine):

another example if you're willing to listen:
link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQOe5cqDxGs
skip to 1 minute 5

and another maybe.. if you've got this far i appreciate it ALOT!

thanks in advance.
 
EDIT!: forgot to mention i don't really want to use an amp either as i don't want the extra weight in my pocket. I know this obviously limits the qaulity of the earphones but i'm not looking for a set of dj top of the range ie8's here. Just a step up from my normal £5 i buy but a big step up on the bass!

If you're ok with ebay then fischer eterna, also |joker| hears a lot of iem's, while that is an undoubted asset to the forum it means he will always know of an earphone that does any aspect better, hence can't get too excited about any in particular, at least that's one possible reason, Clieos has also done a eterna review in his big thread if you've found that. (search "multi iem shootout 3", that should dig it up)

If it must be available in UK, try looking into the t-JAYS from JAYS as there is an official dealer in UK. Plus at least one of the t-JAYS should fall into your budget - though I strongly recommend t-JAYS Two or Three if you can afford it. They are all very much bass driven sound.
