I've been looking for some headphones with big jaw-shaking bass like the Sony XB500's, but also with the crystal clear sound quality of the Audio-Technica ATH-M50's. I mostly listen to Trap music which is basically a Hip-Hop gangsta beat combined with Dubstep. Trap songs have a lot of bass and many Dubstep songs have a lot of bass, but also a lot of detail in the song. Therefor combining these two headphones would be a perfect combination for this genre. Any know of any headphones like this for under $300?

Closest thing I can think of would be the JVC HA-S500, and it sounds pretty great with dubstep. It's bassier than the M50, but not as bassy as the XB500. I own all three of them, and the HA-S500 is my favorite of the group.
