Hi! I'm selling my HE-400 because the bass is too weak for my tastes, and now I need a replacement.
Ive been doing some research, and LCD-2/Fostex seems like the way to go.
Someone said you pay alot for the pretty wood on TH-900, and that the drivers on the TH-600 are essentially the same.
I'm looking for a pair to use for all genres, and I will be wearing them very much, so I don't want anything too tiring or uncomfortable.
What do you guys think? LCD-2, TH-900 or TH-600?
My dac/amp is Schiit Modi and Magni, I dont think i will replace them anytime soon. Ive been told that will work with LCD2; dont know about fostex's (?).
Here are my musical tastes and a sample playlist:

Scores/soundtracks, many dub/dnb derivatives, and all kinds of eletronic music really. Also im a sucker for female vocals.

Not necessarily louder, just more thick and round sounding. That delicious bass underneath the saw after the drop too (2:55), i want it to shred my ears more.
