Questions about In Ear headphones

Hey all, I am in the market for some high end (relatively) in ear headphones and have a few questions I hope you can answer for me.

I am upgrading from a pair of ex71's, which I find decent but not up to my standards
I am currently trying to decide between:
the shure e2c's, ety. er6i, and ultimate ears super.fi 5 EB
I am a complete basshead, but not to the point of sacrificing all other frequencies. it seems the e2c and er6i fit my budget better than the ultimate ears but i am concerned about A) the e2c mid + treb performance , and B) the er61's bass output
i am also wondering about the UE 5 EB's value for the money, I would very much like the dual drivers offered in that model but they are quite expensive.
are they worth waiting and saving up for? would very much appreciate feedback from owners of these headphones
I am also open to any suggestions of other in ear headphones so any info is appreciated
thanks in advance

You might want to check this: http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=77508 and, generally speaking, the whole forum there.

I've had UE-10 for close to two years now, and I've never regretted spending that kind of money. The quality is astounding.
