Just played it through audio analyzer and there is a main rapid flutter hit at 50-55 (53Hz) I think that rapid flutter is the thing you are liking and there is a lower 33Hz hit that rolls in too.
 
Let the sz be non eq and slowly raise those 2 zones along with the gain little by little
 
little gain
 
add some dB to those two spots
 
little more gain
 
add some more to those spots till you find the sweet spot/ bump/thump/kick in the head

Thanks, HBB! It's an interesting sound. BTW, for Neutron users: the Gain in the Equalizer screen is not the same as Volume, I just realized I can get output from the S5 close to amp by raising Gain to 17 and then Volume to 93.  Now I can listen to Basshead music directly even if I don't have my amp with me (gets bulky to carry around in my pocket at work... and also, the amps I have seem to be quite affected by interference by the cell signal.... usually have to use airplane mode).
 
In Sz2k news, I am waiting for MR55X pads to arrive to compare massage effect with Alpha pads for myself.... :)

I bought the last SZ2000 on amazon uk yesterday and it has arrived. I shall be posting soon with my thoughts. I have Denon AH-D7100s and Ultrasone Pro 900s and Rza Chambers to use as bass comparisons too. I'll be honest with which one I enjoy the most for my mostly electronica and hiphop spotify list and won't be ashamed to return the headphones should I not think they have great bass with enough detail.
 
I'll be using the headphone desktop module that comes with the soundblaster ZXR which should have plenty of power considering its price and the EQ will be made quite colored for extra bass.

Ok so I've played a bit with EQ and power levels. These do have strongest subbass and midbass and pad-wibbling sensations of the lot. I thought the ah-d7100 was really amazing at bass but these are quite simply ridiculous. Without EQ they sound really lifeless but with all the Soundblaster stuff turned on and the amp upto 100%+6db and lows and highs pumped right up these are seriously addictive. I'm not sure if I'm playing them at paper fluttering levels but it's enough for me as my ears are still ringing slightly after 10 minutes with them on! Not sure if it's safe to engage 600ohms mode so will wait for goahead from someone on here before flipping that switch on my soundcard.
 
haha intro to pet shop boys fluorescent made my jaw drop and my ear drums tickle.

Ok, got the MR55X pads, and it's confirmed: vs stock, HM5, and Alpha pads, the MR55X pads DO transfer more buzz to the head. (Did this by testing the same section of "On my Level" at the same volume, changing pads).

Hawaiibadboy Hawaiibadboy Finally my search has ended. I really appreciate your effort for putting up reviews of best bass heavy headphones. I got my SZ2K's and they literally made me trip. Bass is well defined, textured and heavy. Mids and highs are pretty awesome. Very comfortable headphones though earpads are shallow and needs a replacement.

Now I can listen music how I wanted to..loud clear and with lots of low end.

Will I recommend it to a person who has hearing loss problem like me..definitely yes! :) :D :rolleyes: :wink:

GET the  55x pads now/soon/now for the final step of bassaholicism

It will make a good bass set MONSTERS. Most folks on this thread chasing bass saw a clear improvement in the head slam dept with 55x pads deployed.
shallow pads are a poor miss by the JVC but you can find a cheap pair of 55x on ebay and get all the way to happy.
