What's your headphone progression?

Welcome!

Of the headphones listed, I think you’d be happiest with the Teaks for what you’re looking for. Open backs tend not to have a lot of rumbling bass, though I’m sure we could come up with a few. I haven’t heard them, but the Sivga Phoenix is supposed to be pretty bassy, as is the Philips X2HR. For true basshead cans, though, you’re probably better looking toward some of the Foster Biodynamic variants like the Teaks, Denon 610/5200, or Fostex TR/TH X00. From there you can mod to get more and/or cleaner bass. You could also find an Audioquest Nighthawk (semi-open), or stepping up a little in price, Campfire Cascades.

Another option might be to go with IEMs to get that bass you crave. Fiio FH3, iBasso OH10, etc. are a couple that seem recommended for bass.
