My friend has these headphones Sennheiser HD 438 High Quality Closed Back Stereo Headphones. They are good however they lack base, what other headphones can i get that are around the same price range, i dont mind £60-70 and have base and are better than these headphones? Any suggestions appreciated, thanks.

Bought these on whim, for your basic train ride to work I don't mind. But its far from being the best I have own.

First, I should note that I auditioned these both straight out of the box, without any break-in time and then later after 53 hours of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite...

A very all-round headphone for me. Just the right one to take on the go or on holiday. Also as a DJ, nice noice isolation. Very durable so you don't have to wonder if it will break if you throw...

What do you like in bass? quantity? quality? both (not with 60£), mids bass/sub bass...
In your price range, the SRH750DJ is excellent but its not a basshead headphone, its an oriented bass headphone but with still a relatively balanced sound.
If you want just quantity bass with lot of punch, buy the XB500. The HD438 has, imo, a much better SQ, but effectively much les bass.
