I don't understand this obsession with huge fat bass. it's like this, find heaviest bass hifi headphone possible + amp with hardware bass boost + eq in even more bass. I just don't get it, why not just buy beats by dre and stream low quality files and play from a phone and be done with it because by adding that much bass it's not really hifi anymore is it.
I wonder whether it's because it's one of the easier things to describe when you are listening to stuff? And then it seems to become the prime factor in assigning quality to something. Do you know what? I put something in my ears and I either like it , it's so so or I don't like it. It's pretty much an instant thing. Then I take 3000 words and 25 pictures, 3 sound files and 5 hours of video editing to try and describe it to everyone. It's a strange world we live in......
