need in ear monitors/earphones

I find it really difficult to explain features of "sound" but yes the bass is a little lower in the M1 but that is not even a problem, since it has healthy amounts of bass by itself that is fairly satisfying.
Its the kind of sound it produces. Its clear, its nice but on listening to CX the sound just feels livelier. I cannot describe it in a better way. Switching between those makes me feel that the senn ones are a tad more "warm" or "alive" or I don't know how to describe it.
The M1's are a good pair but I seem to have institutionalised myself to the CX180.

Hmm Ok I will look into them. Thanks.
BTW I feel the more expensive IEMs (around 5-8k) will make a massacre out of normal 256kbps MP3 music that I usually hear. Is that true? I am actually 80% sure it is true.
massacre= playing low bitrate songs on such good IEMs will also amplify the shortcoming in the quality of the low bitrate songs, thus making the minor niggles more prominent. Like background noise etc will be more prominent.
Also does the sound signature change when these M1s are underwent through a "burn in"?
P.S. I don't know what sound signature actually means. I know about burn in though.

Burn in has no real effect on M1. 256kbps is a pretty decent bitrate and massacre won't happen don't worry. Get good 320kbps music if you are still worried. 
Also, I think (from what I have read), the best IEMs are in the $150 category. But it is better to work your way up to that level. Try different IEMs at lower budgets first.

Head Direct REZERO or Head Direct RE0.
The best two within 5k for mids and highs.
I think hippo VB has been released again after they were apparently listed off.
For bass, nothing comes better than VB in its price range.
Check with Jaben for Hippo VB

You are getting another pair of headphones? Why?
I usually listen to songs with a lot of emphasis on Bass. I would say that it is more important that how bassy the phones are. I don't think "analytical" ones will appease me, for the kind of music I hear.
I will continue my research and look for more headphones and hopefully audition a few.

Radius DDM for you, if you want one of the best bass! But its around 7k.
Don't go for Klipsch S4i (sibilance issues, disturbing it is)
Instead of the Klipsch , go for Hippo VB.
Check reviews of VB on TE,Inearmatters,Head-fi,Techpowerup etc.
