So I love my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 32Ohm and have had them for around 2 years now. I find them VERY comfortable and can wear them like 12 hours "straight" without them hurting at all. When it comes to DT770 being "too bassy" I don't feel they are, I think they are very beautiful (most friends complain there is "too little" bass (but they are clueless, loving their "wireless bass boosted 7.1 headsets").
I have Asus Xonar Essence STX and it is fantastic. I will probably not buy an extra AMP if I get a new headset, as this is supposed to work fine for even 500Ohm headsets. The time I enjoy my headphones the most is when i crank up WASAPI FLAC music. I enjoy listening to Electronica/Synthpop style and Movie Music/Instrumental music. It should be noted that I will use this headset for all my PC use, including movies, games and other stuff, but music is the priority.
I am no expert in the audiophile universe yet. I have noticed that people say it is a common problem with DT770 that their midrange is kind of bad.
When it comes to pricerange I am looking for something in the same range or slightly higher. I also want some punch in it (Fun) but I don't want it to go out over the quality. I want most quality for each money, so if the difference is close to nothing for way more expencive price I probably won't need it. I have been looking at Sennheiser HD650 but it is a bit too expencive.
I know Audio Technica M-50 is very loved, but won't this be almost same sounding as DT770? Also I have heard it is not very comfortable in the long run.
I have been looking at DT990 Pro 250Ohm for a new kind of experience (since it is open), with the same amazing comfort. Is this a good idea?
I have even concidering just buying a DT770 Pro 80Ohm or DT770 250Ohm to see if I notice a difference. I will use the old one as well on another PC so 2xDT770 is not unlikely, since I love it.
I probably have to buy the headset all new so please don't suggest any outdated headsets or headsets that are not popular.
TL;DR: I am looking for a PC headset that is comfortable and gives a "new experience" from the current DT770 Pro 32Ohm. The price should be about the same or slightly higher. The headset needs to be common in web stores.
