Sony MDR-EX800ST with thick tape over the vents is the best I’ve heard.

Can you describe what kind of basshead you are looking for? Midbass? Subbassy? Do you care about treble or vocals? Out of all on the list I have the Titan. I say it sounds very subassy like there is a subwoofer on your ear. It’s unique as the vocals are still heard clearly however at times it gets slightly enveloped with the subbass depending on the song on how pronounced it is. If you like to be drowned by midbass and does not care about vocals and treble much, Sony MDR-EX800ST + tape mod (putting an electrical tape on the vent) this will drown you with midbass, you don’t need a lot of money to enjoy.

Same here. I had heard so much about them and finally got a pair on a recent trip to Japan and paid ~$125 tax free. I also have the Deuce and various other very basshead sets, good ones, but nothing has what those Sony’s give you.

I liked mine, but ended up selling them. Kind of the same feeling. My fave for bass are Sony ex800st with the vents taped. They’re the only ones where I get the proper thump in my brain, super tactile and awesome sounding.

Sony MDR-EX800ST I have 2 sets for the longest time I didn't do any of the mods that could be done for it but I've used them since 2018 and they're the best all around iem. Bass bumps hard but clear. Currently using the blessing 3 with an eq and foam tips don't like it as much comfort wise but sound stage feels larger and I can make out more details.

I've only gotten the 800's heard that modding them makes them into a psudo 1000. never heard of the xba-z5. I'll have to look at them. Right now I'm using koss porta pro I've been having inner ear problems.i have 5 IEM's now, 2 being the 800's, a set of blessings 3 , linsoul zero:2. Used to have Shure 215 but they legit fell apart and the plastic wouldn't stay together.
