At a ~$150 range. I was looking at the HD-25-1-II and the ATH ESW9 but right now I'm not entirely sure about spending $200 new, or looking for used cans. Especially since I heard the ESW9 have some issues with the hinges, and the cable isn't detachable which seems like a poor choice for a portable pair. I'm looking for something that is high and mid-centric with just a bit of bass to keep the songs warm. I'd probably avoid sharp, cold, or analytical sound signatures.
