I’m in the market for a new headphone, and I found two excellent candidates but need your help finalizing it. The headphone will mainly be used for movies, so distortion free bass is a must

Sennheiser USA - HD555 - Product Details
I currently use Sony MDR-CD380, but I would prefer something better. I did however purchased Sennheiser HD485 last year and it completely failed to produce deep bass without any distortion/crackling. At the near the end of the Matrix: Reloaded where the Mjolnir (Hammer) come in search of the Nebuchadnezzar, the bass level was so high the HD515/485 crackled like there was no tomorrow. The sound was completely broken up. I suppose that's because of its 30mm drives.
Lucky enough, I was able to get full refund, but I may not be so lucky this time around. So I have to know if those headphones can handle deep bass without any distortion, crackling and breakup.
Thanks
