Audio Technica ATH-PRO700MK2 review - Take two subwoofers...straight to the head.

Ok, because I was reading some things about some of the headphones I posted and some people said some of those had bass that would blur your vision.
But out of those which would you say would be the bass heaviest?

Q40 and Pro700MK2 have the most, but both require amping to get that bass. Q40s if you want more neutral highs, PRO700MK2 if you want more recessed highs.

So is that all there is? I want something more than the XB500s but of course not so much where all you hear is distorted farting. I don't really want to spend more than 200$ and I am willing to buy a portable amp.

I think so. 
V-Moda Crossfade LPs and LP2s have as much bass as the XB500 FWIR, but nothing has more. If you want more, buy a ZO2 and try pairing it with the XB500.
Or get speakers.

The XB1000s however do not have more bass QUANITITY than the XB500. They have better quality though.

I agree, as a previous owner of the XB1000s they dont have as much bass (and sounded kinda bright and peaky to my ears).

So you would recommend the ZO2? I have heard mixed things about it and some pe9those are my top picks people saying it only works for IEMs blah blah blah. So you would recommend it for the Xb500's, Pro700Mk2's, the M50's, or the Denon D1100? (Considering those are my top picks at the moment along with maybe a Fiio E11)

Ok after a bunch of review watching I think I'm gonna get a ZO2 but I'm still unsure what headphones would give me the best bass and overall sound. I am basically torn between the PRO700MK2's and the M50's.

The M50 is not a basshead can. It's very light on bass. You will not get the "crazyyyy bass heavy like skull shaking" bass you're looking for in the M50, even with help from the ZO2.

Would the ZO2 paired with the XB500s give me a similar bass experience compared to the PRO700MK2's? Because if so I would get the M50's for regular listening and use the XB500's with the ZO2 when I want some skull shaking. (I already own the XB500's)
