Okay, than I'll try it here:
My needs:
1. The cans should be over-ear built. (If an on-ear headphone offers better sound, then I'd take it, too.)
2. The cans should work out of an headphone amp as well as out of a Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer sound card.
3. soundstage: small to average size
4. bass: strong (defined, but not overpowering)
5. bass impact: strong to very strong
6. mids: good resolution, not recessed (maybe only slightly recessed)
7. highs: not too harsh (the lesser the sibilance is, the better it is for my taste)
8. comfort: very good (it should easily be able to be worn several hours at a time)
PRICE: max. 200 €uros
The competitors:
Ultrasone HFI-580
Shure SRH-750 DJ
Audio-Technica ATH-M50S
Sony MDR-XB 500
Sony MDR-XB 700
Maybe too expansive:
[Audio-Technica ATH-A900]
[beyerdynamic DT770/250 Ed.05]
[Denon AH-D2000]
On-Ear ones:
[Sennheiser HD25-1 II]
[beyerdynamic DT250/250]
[Klipsch Image ONE]
So you see, I know what I want, but I'm not sure how to get it.
If you think, that there is any other headphone that could satisfy my needs, than let me know it.

PS:
Here a shorter question:
ATH-M50s vs. HFI-580 vs. SHR-750DJ --> which makes the most fun (bass impact, clear sound, good comfort, less harsh highs) ?!
or is there a headphone (<200 Euros) that destroys them in terms of fun?
