    Hi guys, wondering what the best headphones are for bass. I recently tried the Sennheiser RS 180's and I was unimpressed with the amount of bass I was able to get out of them. Thinking about getting a set of Bose or Beats pro. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    Beats suck, buy Grados.

    +1000000. Grados are great headphones for rock and jazz.

    Or AKG, or Sennhieser. I'm wearing a set of HD600s now. I also have the HD280s. I like the 280s and Grado SR120s for practicing bass best.

    Amen. Beats are perhaps the most overrated headphones of this era.

    But they're endorsed by a pop star.
