Hey guys this is my first post here, I actually just registered here just to ask this question since it seems this site has a good reputation on knowing what's what when it comes to headphones.
I want to get headphone for around 200 or under if it goes over 200 that would be fine too as long as it wasn't much higher than 200. I currently have Sennheiser HD428's I've had them for about 2 years now and I have to say I love how they're pretty neutral as opposed to most headphones in that 70 dollars price range that have overpowering bass to muddle out the lower sound quality. I want bass obviously but I don't want overpowering bass, I watch movies and play games also with headphones and I mostly listen to Ska, Ska/Punk, Acoustic music so bass isn't the most important thing for me. I do want the headphones to be lightish though, as I like to take them on the go, it's okay if they're not perfect in terms of portability just not headphones that are ridiculously bulky.
From a list of a few headphones I've seen looking around I've found that these interest me:
Sennheiser HD558:

(I'm actually wondering about the plush on these Sennheiser's as well, I don't like how that material looks, it looks like it'll make my ears sweat honestly. :| How is it?)
Audio-Technica ATH-M50:

V-MODA M-80:

I'm interested in seeing what kind of replies I will be getting, thank you for your time everyone.
