Have you heard the HD598? Headfonia compares them and the K5XX headphones. The article writer seems to favor the HD5X8 headphones by a large margin.
I think your best bet would be a used K501 (there's a recabled one in the FS forums right now !!) or an Audio Technica AD-2000 "air"
I think they both have exactly what you are looking for. You might try the K501 first because they are cheaper and there's one available now. Very airy, open, clear with focus on detail in the mids and treble. The bass is only there enough to support the mids and treble.
The AD2000 is slightly different, maybe a bit more bass and slightly less treble, but still seems to be just what you're looking for.
