Right now, my main set of cans are my sr60s. They are a fun and enjoyable listen, but there are a few things I would like to see changed/improved. Basically, I'm looking for something that, while it isn't warm or full of midbass bloat, has audible and visceral sub bass. When listening to Mahler for instance, I want to feel as much as hear the music. I'd also want something with a bit more soundstage. Not necessarily 20 rows back, but if it could push me off the stage and into the first or second row that would be nice. And finally, every now the sr60s are a bit harsh. I love the nice treble sparkle and shimmer, but would certainly like my next purchase to be without said harshness.
I'd prefer to keep it under $200, but if there's something that perfectly matches the above criteria but costs more, feel free to mention it. I suppose I can always wait and save up a bit more. Conversely, if there is something cheap that sounds like it has the sound signature I'm looking for, feel free to mention it as well, even if it isn't the most technically superior headphone out there.
