Good bass for a (not) bass-head
I already own the HD 58X Jubilee's. They're great for things with instrumentals and vocals, but the can definitely lag behind in genres that have more bass, say rock for example. I like bass as much as the next guy, but I'm not looking for Beats 😂. What do you recommend from what's on here today Aug 15/24? Meze 99? Ultrasone Signature X? HE-RD7X? Or, should I wait for some Beyerdynamics to come back in stock? I'd like to stay under ~$220. Thanks.

I could go with the Aune X1s, which is currently dropping here but ends in two days. I read about the K7XX being sensitive to and bringing noticeable difference with quality amps, which hopefully with the Aune X1s will be for the better. If anyone is using these two as a pair, I would love to hear your thoughts.
I could also go with another pair of opens, which will be me waiting for the Sennheisers to either drop here or have a sale in local stores. I want them to be different from K7XX, so that I can taste something different. HD58X was my top pick, before I noticed they don't ship to my place, so maybe the HD6XX or just straight HD660s in stores when they are on sale? ;w;
I could also go with a pair of closed, to directly replace my M30x. I'll be using them in house as well as during commute, in libraries and public study rooms, so isolation and comfort will need to be good. I am currently looking at the beyerdynamics pairs dropping, but I am open to suggestions, wired or wireless, ANC or not.
I am quite unsure on what I should do next, and the option of just saving up is honestly quite tempting when the choice is hard. I am satisfied with my K7XX, they offer supreme comfort, great sound when listening to orchestral music and good gaming directional cues, but I am looking to shake things up a bit. Any suggestions?
