Audio Technica ATH-M50 vs. Shure SRH750DJ vs. Onkyo ES-FC300 
 
Looking at the above headphones.  I will be using an Bellari HA-540 Tube Headphone Amp, and a Firestone Dac, Mac Mini.  I listen to music like Adele, Beatles, Maroon 5, Jackson Browne, etc.  Any recommendations? 
 
Thanks!

Back in the day when the M50 was $160 and SRH750DJ was $100 it was easy to recommend the Shure's... but now with the M50 hovering around $90, it's a close call.
 
I'd say the M50 has the upper hand in both durability, comfort and looks (the shure's can look ridiculous on your head since the headband doesn't really contour to your head but stays rather stiff so you get a rectangle on your head) but soundwise I prefer the SRH750...
 
Haven't heard the Onkyo but it seems those who have love them.

Thanks for the response ... I can try to listen to the Onkyos .... the others I can't.

Tried the Onkyos, they are just alright ... should I try the Shures next?
