Headphones routinely struggle with deep lows. My HD 800 S sounds vacant without a huge boost to the deep end. Even then, small headphone drivers typically don’t go that deep and don’t move the massive amounts of air required for realistic bass that resembles genuine instruments. One niche response is to use under-chair woofers or forced-feedback vibration wearables. It’s a niche because it’s weird and hard to execute. See the Nuraphone thread for example.
