Headphone Driver Balance? (Single Driver)


Hi everyone! Im a new member here and I was just wondering if my theory is right. Ive owned a few in-ear headphones and something I noticed is tuning. From what I gathered, Headphones with very good highs and mids often dont have as strong lows and with headphones orientated for bass dont have good highs or does not sound "Clean" or "Bright" I own LG Tone Ultra (HBS-820) and LG Tone Pro (HBS-720?) and they do sound really good but dont have much bass. If you use an EQ they can throw out alot of bass but the highs get drowned out when a song has a lot of bass. If you use something like Beats (Yes, I know they are not quality) they have a lot of good sounding bass but sacrifice the higs. Am I right with this assumption? Does drivers with good higs and mids not produce good lows? Is this a driver limitation?

Thank you! I like more Rap/EDM type music. I do like the Beats for the bass but the highs just arnt there. My go-to's are my LG Tone Ultra (HBS-820) They sound very good in my opinion. I know with an EQ they can push very good bass while keeping the highs. I also know they arnt audiophile grade but they do sound very good for what they are. (Blutooth Apt-X) Does anyone know of any good low price "bang for your buck" IEM's? I was looking at ones from Tin(?)
