I have a pair of Sony MDR-V6's, but I am in need of something more versatile, and portable. I don't care about weight, i will be using them on my Ipad, and my amp-ed computer. I listen to mostly to 30's and 40's classical music (yes I did play fallout 3 and New Vegas and that is the reason being), Dubstep, Drum and Bass (Noisia to be more specific) and Beck (don't know which genre he goes under). I was thinking of the Denon AH-D1100s, or Audio Technica M50's, please list any suggestions around the 100-150 range, and also, please help me choose one that doesn't over power the vocals and midrange. Had the same problem with my V6's.

I'll keep this very short. They are very smooth sounding. Treble toned down so not so good for rock but have a magic about them that makes them better than mark 2. I use them with a '89/'90...

First, I should note that I auditioned these both straight out of the box, without any break-in time and then later after 53 hours of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite...

If heavy bass is a priority, the M50's. If you want better mids, details and hard hitting bass go for the HFI-580's.
Personally i'd go for the ultrasones.
