I think that is one of the hallmarks of neutral bass. Some recordings have it and some don't. A pair of phones that has strong bass impact on everything played through it cannot be neutral in the bass IMHO. Some of the finest loudspeakers (and associated systems) exhibit the same phenomenon.

But this trait is actually what helps make them sound so neutral and balanced. I sometimes wish for a little more bass weight but that seems very music/ recording specific. |
