Looking for headphones similar to Astro A40's but with more bass

Numanex
i've been using astro a40's w/ the mixamp for several years now and they've served me well for playing competitive games and listening to heavy bass music like dnb, house and dubstep/drumstep.
 
i know nothing of  HEADPHONES, i want to know if there is a similar pair of HEADPHONES similar to the astro a40's in terms of competitive gaming. in shooting games when i wear the a40's i can tell which level of a building a guy is on and pinpoint his location within the building.
 
i want something that can take wear for 24+ hours at a time as the astro's have broke several times in the last 5 years of owning them.
the HEADPHONES have to have a louder (or adjustable) bass than the astro a40 as i enjoy listening to music while i play.
 
OPTIONALLY I WANT TO BE ABLE TO TURN THE MUSIC UP TILL I COULD GO DEAF AND IF THAT REQUIRES BUYING ADDITIONAL HARDWARE COULD YOU GIVE ME SOME EXAMPLES OF WHAT I WOULD NEED.
I HAVE AROUND £300 TO SPEND +MORE IF I CAN BE GUARANTEED THAT THE PRODUCT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT.
 

 

 

IM BUYING A DESKTOP MIC SO PLEASE ONLY RECOMMEND HEADPHONES

Optionally I want to be able to turn the music up till I could go deaf and if that requires buying additional hardware could you give me some examples of what I would need.

I have around £300 to spend +more if I can be guaranteed that the product is exactly what I want.

If you're really willing to spend £300 then I'd say get the Beyerdynamic MMX 300. They're about as good as you're going to get when it comes to gaming headsets. Buy them from Overclockers.co.uk though, Amazon has them listed at like £300 whereas Overclockers has them listed at around £220.

For some strong bass pick up DT 770s or 990s with a strong amp.

K612s have good bass but need an amp to get those most out of them.
