i lose interest in helping some dude that goes BASS BASS BASS


Why?
...and you refer to him as 'some dude'. LOL
Anyways.

Looks like the OP needs a usb source, amp, and phones. That makes this a little more tricky to budget.
I agree on the 650s, on the other stuff I go DIY so I can't really help you there. Just please don't buy a Keces dac

They look very cheaply built for a 450 dollar head phone.

So i guess its a toss up so far with HD650's and Ultrasone PRO900's



My hd650 doesn't get anywhere close to the pro900 in bass quantity.
The pro900 are made of plastic but they look pretty solid to me, the paint wont flake away after a while from the headband like the hd650 as well.
They also have 2 pairs of earpads and a solid case for storage and transportation. So I don't think you have to worry about their durability.

Sorry for not being well versed in the world of headphone Etiquette, This should be expected among new members to the board.

I really appreciate the helpful posts all of YOU have made to me. I think im going to go out and purchase a pair of headphones based on your posts. I have read almost 10 pages of reviews in the official thread.
They meet my price range, Need for bass and have a detachable cord which i can change out with no difficulty at a later date.

now with all the room left in your budget, get a proper source and amp. The amp especially will help bring out the bass in those bad boys. If you want a combination, I'd look at the Corda Cantate from Meier Audio. Not a bad little amp/dac.

The Cantate seems to be a slightly simplified Pimeta, in that they have just buffered the ground rather than having a unity gain buffered op-amp. The DAC is effectively an alien dac.
At $460 that is an alright deal I suppose.
Both of those components are very good at this kind of price level.
However, you may want to look for a pimeta and alien dac in the fs forums. You could probably snag both for a little over $250.
