I'm a native french sorry for some mistake with my english.

First i want to say that i don't think that i'm a very good reviewer, that's my very first high-end headphone so i don't have any comparison so i will do it on what i feel.
I'm a kinda perfectionnist type of person so this will be surely be a long post.
2nd i'm a basshead, so i'm really not in the classical or orchestral kind of music but i listen to every kind of music, rock, punk, metal, pop etc...
To begin i was with a pair of Senheiser HD558 modded; i removed the foam behind the driver to get more bass, with a schiit magni amplifier because they are 50ohm and even my Asus Xonar DX cant handle them.
So the masterpiece; the Fostex TH600 with a Schiit Magni amplifier, my DAC is a Asus Xonar DX
I have them for 3 weeks now.
I get them used on ebay from a very reliable seller who seems to be someone who know what it was selling and it was right. I had them for 375$USD in a very very good condition all the box even the original japanese paper with it.
I am a basshead so my first concern was about how much bass they can produce. I was hook by the power they can handle. More people adviced me the Meze 99 but some told me that fostex is way better; they are much worthier tough.
I did my research and the fostex came first everytime and i didn't want to loose money on something that was underwhelming.
So what i think now. I tested them. They are incredibly powerful. They are overwhelming.
They need to be EQed if you want to achieve very loud bass tough.
The level of bass you can achieved is pretty amazing but I can reach the maximum on certain track. Some heavy low bass track (10-30hz) they begin to distortion but this is extreme.
On my average kind of music they are exactly what i want from a power bassy type of headphone.
Some review told that they have a V shaped kind of timbre, i didnt felt that, i put a kinda V shaped EQ to them.
I base this review on : 70% bass music and 30% rock/metal
For a reference i rate my senheiser HD558: bass 3/10 and overall 4.5/10, cut the bass and they still pretty sound good but far from overhelming.
The sustained bass 20-80hz is really good, like it tickle your eardrum, is it overwhelming and so satisfaying. It is like you have 2X 12'' 1000W RMS each side of you head. But the 10-30 range make all the rest vibrate

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
