Well, of course the HDJ-2000 aren't undestructible
you can find about that around here too.
I would cross out of your list both DN-HP700 for being an inferior set, and HDJ-2000 as being quite overpriced for what they do.
I don't think you understood what I meant. In the past, dj headphones did have quite severe imbalance, but that not what happens now with current dj headphones, such as HDJ-2000 or XD-53. While there is still a bit of a smile shaped EQ, it's far from being the sharp V shaped EQ that some older dj headphones had. And through EQing, the sound does get back in place, in the event you don't find it to your taste.
If you have access to, I'd try the A&H XD-53, AKG K181 DJ and Ultrasone DJ1/HFI-580. One of those is bound to please you.
About the Fiio E5, why not spending just a bit more and getting a PA2V2 which sounds much better than the E5?
