Just purchased the Sennheiser HD 598's, now I have ~$40 left for a pair of closed, bass heavy over ear cans. Recommendations? | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org

Basically what the title says; I had a budget of $220, and decided on the HD598's, priced at $180. Now I'm thinking I might like a pair of closed headphones to go along with them, and since bass isn't the strong point of the 598, I'm thinking a boost there would be nice as well.

Is there anything over ear that you could recommend, or is it just worth waiting longer and buying something better?

Sony's old line of xb products are really good for bass.

I can find a refurbished UE6000 for around $30-40.

In this price range, it would probably be better to get an iem instead.
