A lot of excellent and accurate descriptions given by ASR and Elephas already about the AD2000 so I wont rehash, especially considering they have better setups and more listening experience than I do.
I think the AD2000 is a great headphone, however its not the one I would recommend for a card-carrying bass head
The headphones most often mentioned for their bass performance in probably the DT770, DT990 and the new Denon's. I havent heard them personally though so I cant comment with detail.
Regarding the bass performance of the AD2000 compared to a Senneheiser 595 and 650, the Ad2000 is obviously lacking the same level of impact and thickness of the bass of the 650, but the AD2000 has an extended and fast bass, which I love when listening to the double bass in jazz ensembles. I can follow the bass line accurately without it becoming fuzzy like on my 595. I think with the right amp, it could add more thickness to the sound.
I have put in the "phatpad" mod to increase the stiffness of the earpads to make them a bit more comfy. The mod definitely helped with comfort. I suspect it may have helped a little with bass performance too, because I think a bit of that bass impact sensation you get with a 650 or 595 (or leather pads in a 880, or Denons) probably comes from the more rigid earpads helping to conduct the bass vibration a bit more to the ears and head.
All in all, the AD2000 unamped is not bass shy, its just not a headphone that is bass heavy. A lot depends on the amp setup you have of course, but even out of an ipod, the AD2000 have decent bass.
Enjoy your new Prolines.
