Wolfen,
IEM's can be an incredible experience when listening to music, but they are NOT the end all experience in my opinion. In fact every professional I know hardly use their IEM's off the stage or out of the studio, unless they need portability as in exercising and traveling. I do not want to brag here as its not my style but on my main audio system at home my speakers run into 6 figures per pair....at that price level the performance characteristics are very different than isolating the sound in your head with IEM's.
As far as IEM's are concerned there are a few truly good companies that make them. After visiting the UE lab in Vegas, which is growing very fast I might add, I have to tell you that their product line has become the industry leader.
