Hmm, I think that's an apples-to-oranges comparison. Expecting a BA to measure up to a DD is unrealistic;
within the context of BA, the IER-M9's bass is quite good. In fact, the only BA IEM I've heard that I'd consider better for bass is the U12t.
Nio's more of a sub-bass specialist, trading some transient attack in the mid-bass for excellent texturing and slam down low. Yeah, sure, it's a bit slow, but some people like that quality to their bass. The ER2XR is more about control; it's snappy, but overly lacking in texture for a DD of its price. Even the Z1R, which most - myself included - would deem the king of bass, has its issues. It's transients are incredibly dense to the point of which it can be fatiguing (not helped by the massive amounts of lower-treble) and suspiciously one-note (lack of macrodynamic ability). And don't get me wrong, I like all these IEMs. What I'm getting at is that this is all relative; there are always trade-offs at play and some people might desire certain characteristics more than others
