If you love Pro 80s V-shaped sound signature, there aren't too many options...Are the Takstar Pro 80 still competitive sound quality for under $50? I've got the itch to replace them but I'll spend the $50 elsewhere if its not much of an upgrade.
You can try Pro 81 - Pro 80 with the genuine HPAEC840 pads (the pads must be genuine, replacement pads are not as good).
If you'll like Pro 81 more than 80, you should buy a genuine Pro 82 v2 at TakstarAudio store, there is a discount coupon in the first post https://www.head-fi.org/threads/tak...iew-impressions-and-discussion-thread.849965/
Pro 82 V2 made me retire the 1700$ Fostex TH900MK2. You can find many comparisons with much more expensive headphones in the 2nd post of the Pro 82 thread
