i would say the K701 and definitely the DT880 have more or better bass than the W5000. the K701 either has better bass or at least a fuller sound that seems to appear as stronger bass. as for the DT880 ('05 version) there is no doubt in my mind that the bass is both more present and with greater impact than the W5000.
