Alright, that might be a good idea. Also, does the sound leak with the DT990s?

They are open-back headphones, so yes, they leak sound out, and they don't isolate all that well. On the plus side, the open-back design gives you awesome soundstage and imaging

 but they wouldn't be ideal for mobile use.

Could a person that is 7 feet across from you hear the music your listening to at all at 7/10 volume?

Would the Hesh 2's be considered a neutral pair of 'cans?

Not really, but surprisingly closer than I thought. I only got to use them for a short time, and I could immediately detect the rolled-off treble. The bass is pretty level, but it bleeds into the midrange. I wouldn't call it neutral, but it's... hmm.

want decent good all arounder with a slight emphasis on bass?  ath-m50.  if you can find them... an old pair of denon d2000's.  
 
Dubstep usually doesnt have words really.... unless you want to hear every nuance of the sound optimus prime makes when he transforms.

Does the ATH-M50 have more, less, or the same amount of bass as the V-MODA Crossfade Lp's or Hesh 2's?

Marginally less bass than the crossfade LP's. M50 is more flat in comparison (okay okay i know they are not really that flat compared to other really neutral headphones)

I would steer clear of the M50s. They were one solid cans at their price point, but now you can get so much better in that price range. Like, the Crossfade LP for instance! And it definitely has less bass. Although there are kinda two versions floating around (of the M50), I had the flatter version.
