Hey head-fi,
This is my first time in the market for headphones and its a lot to take in. I'm looking for my first set of good headphones. I don't like too much bass and I listen to a lot of indie rock and acoustic. I have a pair of cx500s right now and they are great, but I want something for home listening. I've been looking at the sennheiser hd595s and they look pretty good. What kind of music are they good for? I'm open to suggestions but I want to keep it under $200. I'm also in the market for a DAC or sound card. What would be the better choice? With my PC being my primary source of sound I want my headphones to sound good, and not have to deal with on board sound. I would like to keep this under $100.
Here's a link to my Last.FM so you can have a look at my music taste:

Thanks for any help!
PS: All my music is encoded in flac!
