I love my Shure 840's for rock, but for hip hop/rap they seem to be missing the punchy bass of many of the songs. I've heard the M50's have good bass, but are there other cans for around $150 that give a really punchy pronounced bass?
 
Thanks,
Mike

Try HFi580, better than M50 imo.

FA-011 have ALOT of impact, but.... They are open and leak sound and do require amplification.

The M50's bass isn't as much punchy as it is low and deep.

Any suggestions for something that is punchy?

Plenty of impact, slam, punch and rumble.
 
Very best,
