Soundmagic HP151 (closed) or Soundmagic HP200 (open) are the bassist headphone I have, for the budget.

By bassy headphones, do you mean a quality bass or just a really loud bass (bloated).
Beyerdynamic DT990 250-Ohm headphones, loud bass.

Beyerdynamic dt770 80 ohm or dt880 250 ohm black edition has quite a lot. Id first try to equalize what you have though. With enough power for a -6db preamp reduction you can get more out of them with APO equalizer and Peace front end.

Put some leather angled Brainwavz pads on these, and EQ the hell out of them for insane bass.

I have the ZMF Lambskin Earpad Pair...do these work or should I order the brainwavz ?
If they're the angled oval shapes ones, then they should work just as well, but I've never actually tried these specific pads out, so I don't know if they actually fit.
Even my leather brainwavz pads were a VERY tight fit.

Even without EQ, it should be obvious that the bass instantly gets a huge boost, but the whole frequency response will get a bit messed up by these pads.
