I've ultimately had no help from the recommendations thread, so, I'm turning to both Supremeus members and the general forums.
Copy-paste of my post
I listen to a lot of EDM and other misc electronic genres, such as breakcore, speedcore, noise, and happy hardcore. Sometimes some rock, experimental, and classical.
I was discontent with my Custom One Pro, because it was too dark and bassy for me. Plus, I found it too difficult to drive with anything other than my phone.
I want something that is somewhat bright, like the DT770's level of brightness, with balanced sound the rest of the spectrum. No bass emphasis. Detailed. I'd prefer to have mids that aren't too horribly recessed. Soundstage must be better than something like the ATH-M30 (okay width, but basically zero depth)
I'd prefer it to have at least 32 ohm impedance. 64-80 is my ideal range though. Higher may be even better, but I've not had experiences with anything over 80 as of yet.
I'd like to use it to produce on a PC with Realtek audio, but that isn't a big necessity. I already have headphones for that. So, that'd just be a bonus, honestly.
Must be portable to an extent. Closed back. Detachable cable is a HUGE plus.
I have a cMoy BB V2.03 amp.
Budget is around $200, but can go a little higher (up to around $225) if need be.
I'm limited to whatever Amazon has, unfortunately.
KG Jag told me that the SRH840 are probably not good for me, due to recessed treble.
He also said that the KRK KNS 8400 may be good, but he ultimately couldn't help much due to his lack of experience with EDM.
Thanks in advance.
