I prefer neutral sound since I'm not a basshead.

What is the source you are listening from and do you need closed backs or is a open headphone ok?

I mainly listen from laptop with Fiio e10k but often in public area (I am programmer so basically I always bring laptop wherever I go). I once tried grado sr60e and I love the sound, but I don't like it's sound leakage. So i prefer closed one, any suggestions ?

Thanks for the suggestion but I prefer closed headphones. Are m40x's response fast enough to "catch" death metal's blastbeat drums?

Yep the m40x Will be able to handle it. They are better suited for metal band the M50x more neutral not as much overpowering Bates. But the base is still suite on the M40x
Also check out the Fostex t40rpmk3 A will sound fantastic With the fiio e10k
