Looking fo headphones for bass guitar monitoring

Pro studio recording equipment and music production/industry.

Hello!
Would you have a recommendation for a pair of *high-quality* headphones (maybe closed?) to use with my Bass V-Amp Pro and a 5-string bass guitar for practicing? I do not mind too much about the price as long as they have *superb bass response*, I need it to be low (low-B string) and very clean (no distortion, buzzing, etc.). I play mostly jazz and a little rock. No need for the phones to be super powerful: I only have set of ears for lifeâ€¦
I donâ€™t want to use my Sennheiser HD600s for that application either :-) Maybe some HD580/590 could do?
So far in that context Iâ€™ve also read good things about:
- Sennheiser eH2270, eH2200
- Beyerdynamics DT-770 Pro
- AKG K401, K240M, K240DF
- Etymotic
Iâ€™ve already checked www.headwize.com .
Thanks for your suggestions!
Regards,
Iam Nemo
