Hi,
I am not much of an audiophile guy but I really like to listen to music. I am looking for a replacement from my Beats Solo 2. Overall, I'm versatile in term of sounds and genre.I listen to industrial hip-hop ( or any hip-hop), which I found the sound to be bassy, bouncy and abrasive, and also drone/ambient and jazz, which I like to pick up the detail in it. I am wondering if you guys could recommend me any closed over-ear or on-ear head (price range: 100$-200$) for my case. I heard ATH-M50X's sound are balanced but lack in the bass. Thank you for helping!

The M50X is actually a fair bit bassy. Also look into Sennheiser Momentums, V-Moda (these definitely have bass) or the Sony MDR-1A.

You should also check out the SoundMAGIC HP151--ever-so-slightly v-shaped and a real delight to listen to. Highly recommended.

I found the bass on the M50s to be very bloated the upper ranges were not too bad but could not get past the bloated bass. The V-Moda M100's do come with the bass for sure much tighter and punchier than the M50's.

What are using to play your music? A phone?

Yes! I wonder if I need a portable amp for my headphone though? I am still choosing between V-Moda M100 and V-Moda XS.

I myself can not stand a on ear headphone you might but for me they are a no go.

I also heard the fit for the V-Moda XS makes it slide easily whenever you jerk your head. I'm going to ride skateboard here and there in college so I don't want it to fall off. So I might go with the over-the-ear style (besides I might need noise isolation too).

Yes that probably would be better. I bought my first skateboard in the mid 70's so that makes me a old guy but I have gone over 50 mph on a skateboard had a guy on a motorcycle riding next to me to see how fast I was going. It was a Logan Earthski 32 inches long and 6 inches wide with Independent trucks and hard urethane wheels from a pair of speed skates. Some of the most stupidest things I've done but damn was it fun.

hd598cs is a good choice. It's just that I find it quite natural and the bass is there but not profound.
