Looking for some headphones for Trance music listening (good bass).
I have a budget of £200 or so.
I don't mind secondhand as can renew the ear muffs.
Looking for full over ear type, wireless or wired.
Thanks for any help given .

The Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X are about to come out for $200 direct from them if you can wait, I'm on the list since the tuning looks great.

The DT900 Pro X are really fun and don't need an amp, available now used in budget. The DT177x used are good too, I have those also and nice bass when a song calls for it.

I used to have nth-1 and they were really good. Especially with edm. They have good soundstage and separation for a closed back and bass was like subwoofer. Also multipurpose headphone that looks very modern. Better value than Beyers imo.

Ultrasone Pro 900.

You should be able to get a pair within budget on eBay.

^This. Had 900's years ago and they were great with trance and similar stuff.

Right now Signature Pure seems to be a strong contender in this price range, haven't heard them, though.

OK many thanks for your replies. Will take a look at them all.
Cheers.

If you need a really versatile and bassy headset:

Look for a used set of HE-R9s modified by JM Audio. They’re $300 new, can definitely get them for $200ish used. They’re as bassy as you can get, and when modified they make a subpar set of headphones into something almost magical for the price. If you buy new, he’ll tune them specifically for your taste.

Go for some Ultrasones, they are the best closed for EDM. Bass punch is spot on.

My favorite pair from them is their Signature Natural, but you can go for other models which will carry the same basic sound signature.

The Natural model was discontinued and rarely shows up anywhere.

Their HFI 780 is a good step down model and is my favorite go to for gaming but also sounds great with EDM. I have probably been through over 20 of their headphones, like most of them - and in the end I kept 780 and Sig Natural.

I've never tried or heard the PURE so I can't really comment on them. Personally. I'd recommend the HFI 780 since I know it to be excellent for EDM but I also doubt PURE would miss the mark too much, either.

Get used V-Moda M100. Still the king for electronics.
