The ones I used and had that intense fear dream within a nap (30 minutes) were the AKG K141. Sound awesome, more bass but not really great to wear. I used the trickling stream track. I don't know if for the trickling stream a setting with more bass is better, but I think so because of the voices in the background (of the sub, not my head).
I remember Shannon said something about "Jazz settings or neutral" but that was for the ultrasonics. As far as I know the frequency range does not have to be that big if you use the masked tracks. But I'd like to hear some input from others users and if the Grandmaster himself finds the time, Shannon some experience or advice of you would be great.
I think accuracy, information retrieval and dynamics are more important than extension, with the masked subs anyway. My Fidelio X1s go from 10 Hz to 40 kHz, but I can't hear 20 kHz let alone 40!
