Jumping between the Sennheiser HD650 and the Beyerdynamic DT990 600ohm version is a distiguishing difference, and a very refreshing leap. While the HD650 did have bass, a warm signature, and quite natural sound with a great soundstage, one of the first things that caught me when first trying out the DT990s was the increase of bass, which I favour a lot (and probably the most I've ever heard on open cans). Of course, as some of you may be aware of - probably from hearing yourself or reading elsewhere - there is also an increase of treble; some say polarizing treble. To me, the treble was obtrusive on some songs, but on some tracks the treble, with the company of the thumping bass, made the songs alot more lively while also offering great fluidity with the great soundstage of these phones. The 600ohm version did bring out the clear and detailed sound signature that these cans provide, and I have to say that being a big fan of open headphones, this is probably one of the greatest headphones out there. However, if you are solely after bass, then you should consider a pair of closed headphones such as the Ultrasone PRO series or the Sony XB series. While the Beyers provide great bass, with the sacrifice of acceptable mids, they are not bass cans as such as no open headphones will bring you that hard thumping bass which only closed phones can provide. Additionally, if you are after as neutral sound possible, then I should recommend you look toward the DT880 with 600ohm, or perhaps the HD650, though it does sound slightly more 'veiled' than the DT880s.
