If you are gaming, take the K701 off the list. They are great cans, but will do nothing for games. They rule classical/jazz. The bass is accurate, but has no impact. 

I'll keep it brief...   Ultrasone Pro series. They are my 'go-to' for bass. Some tunes just rattle my head so bad I have to turn the bass down.

I still to this day own my pair of SR-80's (so maybe my opinion is a tad void because you are looking at higher end models). Grado has a great sound. Fairly easy to drive, and it really makes rock music come alive. As said before,...

Ultrasones. I LOVE bass, and have had many cans that let me down. Try their Pro line. Mine are still burning in, but damn are they amazing. Audio Technica also are good for bass, but the construction of them was a little poor. My...
