I am in similar situation as drumshark.
I see that a specific mp3player/DAC/EQ setting combo would bring out the best bass performance from a particular headphone. But, what HP do you guys suggest (within a budget of $200) for the strongest and the cleanest bass impact from a laptop w/o dedicated sound card w/o any amplifier w/o any EQing?
I have an M50 currently and love it. However, I wouldn't really mind some more bass if it's clean. I don't really know if investing in a dac would improve the sound quality drastically. Would there be a day/night difference in the sound if I use something like a nuforce udac? I feel apprehensive to invest $100 on something if it leads to a negligible improvement in SQ. I would rather spend $100 more and get another headphone which would give me stronger bass impact right out of my laptop.
