PaulWarning Posted yesterday at 11:18 Posted yesterday at 11:18 my much loved Audio Technica ATH WS1100 headphones have bitten the dust, and are no longer available, I've tried Audio Technica's ATH M-50X's but they haven't got the pronounced bass or depth of the WS1100's. I'm not interested in monitoring with them just listening and practicing through them and I like emphasised bass, any suggestions what to try next? Quote
itu Posted yesterday at 15:38 Posted yesterday at 15:38 A shop full of headphones. Start from the most expensive. When you hear a difference in sound, take one step back. There you go. But hey, an emphasized bass? Maybe you should start from the cheapest, and when you don't hear that exaggerated bass, take one step back? Quote
PaulWarning Posted yesterday at 16:39 Author Posted yesterday at 16:39 After a bit of research the Audio Technical ATH-A550z's seem to fit the bill, I'll have to find out if anybody stocks them, and for cheap and nasty the Kos UR20's both bass heavy and big earpads for my big ears Quote
Dan Dare Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Good old Beyer DT770s (or 990s for more money) do fat bass very well. Closed back cans will tend to give fuller bass, whereas open backs are more airy. Quote

The Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X is way better than the two you mentioned (I own one and tested the other two before choosing it). I also own an excellent Meze Audio 99 Classics Walnut/Gold (my favourite headphones) and an AKG K702 (excellent for mastering, but a tad aggressive for simply listening to music). Quote
