Thank You all !

Heya,

Panasonic RP-HTF600 with Velor Pads

Beyer Dynamic DT770 PRO or DT990 PRO

Ultrasone HFI 580

Roc Nation Aviators

Denon D2000 (used)

Very best,

The HD-595 is a great headphone.  The Creative Aurvana Live headphone is another one that is quite nice for the price.  If you want something really well built the Audio Technica ATH-M50 is often praised as best in its price point.  I own a pair of M50's and liked them for years until I upgraded to the AH-D2000 by Denon.

The Fischer Audio FA-003 is another can that has a laid back and slightly dark sound which works well for Electronic music.

Here is some new music to try as well:

Very best,

Add the HFI 780 to the list for a more balanced sound and this is a perfect list.

Beyerdynamic DT 990 in sound quality?

I assume you're talking about the 32ohm version right? where are you plugging them to? 

i just recommended these in another thread, but i hear the hd25-1 ii's are pretty good for electronic, and also fit your budget.

The Ultrasones are great for electronic music. try some models like the Pro/PL-650, and for more bass the Pro-900.

I like my hfi-780s for electronic......

My brother has a pair of m50s too, and they are also great for the price imo.......

They sound different, but I would have trouble saying one is "better" than the other.  I think the m50s are a bit more comfortable than the 780s. The ultrasones have a brighter sound than the m50s do, and maybe slightly less bass quantity.... The m50s also seem to be slightly easier to drive, although both will be fine without an amp..... I honestly think you would be happy with either of them =D

I think that for the price the m50s are great for dubstep, I haven't listened to as much trance through them, but what I have has sounded good to me. Unfortunately I have not heard the 595s, so I can't really help there....
