hi guys. currently rocking the Sony XB700s. really appreciate the seismic bass I'm getting from it after i pair with only the E5. XB700s literally shake my head. I know its not good sweat.gif but its not like I listen long hours to those seismic bass! (or do I?)

I am considering an upgrade. Havent got enough yet but am saving up for it. probably wanna buy the XB1000s. im thinking bigger drivers get even more subwoofer-ish sound.. but i wonder why people say xb1000 bass not boomy as its lower models? not amp enough? impedance also 24ohm very low what~ if only got test unit somewhere.

in the search of the bassiest boomiest royal rumble headphone out there.
*been researching on athpro700mkII, some users ain't so happy with it when compare with XB700s.. its as if headfonia review not so reliable..inb4 mana bassnya pondan.jpg*
*
Bass: Might wanna try Audio-Technica WS series (ATH-WS55 / ATH-WS70)

lol if i was richfag i go buy already sweat.gif but ya la, XB1000s also price tag not too far from that
really? these are just 40mm drivers right? can really rumble aa?

It solid and punchy bass but not to heavy, if you really want super heavy bass then go with Audio-Technica PRO series (ATH-PRO5MK2 / ATH-PRO500MK2 / ATH-PRO700MK2).

Im looking into it dy(phiaton). Putting it to the list with some other brand.
Any other model that carry the same sound signature? clarity,vocal--and lively.

It seems im looking for warm,from what i test one by one by still x know what to choose.
Detail is nice,but if too much,i found that uh..well yawn.gif , --im not really a bass guy,but a nice composed bass is nice.

You might want to consider Audio-Technica ATH-CK10 (Dual BA) or Zero Audio ZH-BX500 (Single BA)

after tons of research i can't decide between AKG Q701 and Denon D2000, my left side around 1.5 meter have television, almost 24hours on, and my backside around 3 meter have people, must not hear anything if possible, i need subbass but don't need bass in pub

Q701 selling at $250 at amazon and d2000 selling at $300, i',m going to buy from there directly, any opinions?

Based on your situation, I recommend you to go with Denon AH-D2000 - closed-back + isolation + realistic SQ
