For regular non headphone listening I use a NAD T753 with Dali Lektor 3's and Sub. The warm sound of the NAD and the wood fiber cones of the Dali's yield a detailed yet warm sound. I recently got the ASUS STX card. I have owned a pair of Grado SR60i HP's for several years. I listen to classical, vocal, acoustic, 80-90's rock, and some modern stuff. Not only have the Grado's served me will, but a lot of the other headphones I've tried sounded bad to me. I've compared several brands but don't remember all of the models. I liked the Sennheisers, PSB's, that sounded good. I didn't like the B&W phones, and I thought the AKG's sounded thin. So far I do really like the Beyer DT880's I tried today. It's hard to demo a lot of these, but for the most part, I like warm neutral open sound. I do not like too much of an emphasis on highs or rumbling bass.

So you like the DT880 headphones, cool, so you have found headphones you like.
What other suggestion are you looking for?

Actually got to demo the entire Grado line, the Sennheiser HD600/650/700,and the Beyer DT990's.  I ended up getting some DT880 Pro 250 ohm for $239.  They seemed like to most comfortable and best for the price point.
