Hello, I registered here to ask all of you for advice, which is choosing headphones (duh). Normally I do that by researching sites like this/amazon/youtube for reviews, but I can't really see my next headphones very clearly as I saw my previous headphones.
 
My first audiophile's headphones were Koss PortaPro, which I liked very much, but they simply broke. I wanted something new, so I did my research and decided on Sennheiser HD205 which were good, but not that good as they broke too, so I disassembled them (that was fun). My next headphones were AKG K450 which were awesome. I never heard a better bass sound, but the cable broke (I don't have luck with cables, don't I?) and I repaired it myself. I sold them because they didn't do good with sound isolation, and I really wanted ear-cup headphones. So I started searching again, and found Sennheisers HD448, which have very high notes. They were good, although the bass wasn't as good as AKG's and they were extremely bad with my ipod. They made (that's what Google translator said) grunt bass noise, but they did good connected to a PC. Sadly, I needed money so I sold them and my ipod (I'm not a fan of apple in the first place) and I plan on something that will play closely/better than AKG's, will be over ear, noise cancelling and the design  close to my thought-of's. I play music mainly on my computer, but I also use them outside. I'm also desperate since I'm using Sony Ericsson's earphones.
 
I would go like a stupid for Beats Studio, but since I had them on my head (3 friends from class have them) I say "What is this" to them. Something that bad yet it needs batteries. Cables are nice though...
 
 
My "thought of" list:
 
Sennheiser HD215
Shure SRH440
Shure SRH550 DJ
Teufel Aureol Massive
Beyerdynamic DTX 910

 
 
I read good things and bad things about them (well, not about BD's and Teufel's since no one tested them here, only at amazon). So I wanted to ask you: Which?
 
Also tell me if you have something to add to this list.
 
 
I listen to: Hip Hop, Rock, Dubstep, Trance, Electronic, Reggae, some classics.
Mainly Lossless quality, also vinyl lover.
 
Please help me choose, I really want to choose carefully!
