Open almost always means no bass (unless you’re spending $500+ on planar magnetic), so I’ll pass.

Semi-closed back is the way to go. Best of all worlds (good sound stage + good bass).

Sure but “almost always” is not “always”. Maybe don’t judge these until you’ve heard them?

You haven’t even heard them and are making grand assumptions. The bass is great at low to medium listening levels but rolls off as you increase the volume due to physical limitations.

I’m pretty sure those physical limitations are exactly what he’s talking about.
