Best bass heavy headphones for music production

So personally I wouldn’t go for a headphone with a bass heavy signature for music production, a slight bass emphasis or dip is fine, but I wouldn’t want a heavy prominence on any one region. You might consider something like a dt770 250 ohm or akg k371 for a headphone that could be used for music production with decently prominent bass (although personally I think that’s pushing it for the amount of quantity one would want to have, but the bass is reasonably controlled on those two). Personally I wouldn’t go for a meze 99 neo for music production, that’s fairly bloated and rounded, not really something I would want for this application. For the m50x, it’s alright, but personally it can get a bit too harsh and there isn’t much stand out about it. Would you be using an amp with it?
