Ok, so after a fairly large amount of research I have come to this short list of the usual suspects.
Senn HD650 £299.00 appears to be the boring sensible option, a lot of people seem to have these though, they look 'ok' they will probably be comfortable and the sound will probably be very good. Concerned that some reviews say these are 'Dark' The TMA-1s are supposedly considered 'dark' I don't find them that dark but have very little to compare them too.
HE- 300 £275.00 $249.00 from u.s. [£160] love the look of these and the reviews all sound good. But the price difference from dollars to pounds is too much to ignore. Pity.
HE-500 $699.00 [£450.00] price issue as above, and probably out of my price range if i want to get an amp.
Grado SR325iS - £315.00 [$490.00] $295.00 from u.s. [£190] same price issue as the HE-300, pity these would probably be my headphones of choice as I love the looks my only other concern is comfort and possible issues with non rock music. price issue really is a major concern.
AKG K701 £209.99 love the looks and the price is nice. haven't done a huge amount of research on these but they sound fairly neutral and accurate to the original recording. A lot of people recommending these and the 702 and the Q701, whats the difference etc.
Denon AHD2000 £224.99 like the looks and price is nice, Pretty sure I want open phone as my TMA-1s are closed and want to experience a larger sound stage, which kinda counts these out.
Audio technic a ATH-Ad2000 £381.05 not really researched these thoroughly, bit more expensive, like the looks though. Maybe out of my price range unless i get a really good reason to consider these.
Amp. E7/E9 combo as I like the idea of the portable DAC etc. price is good, seems like the easy option. Don't think for my first amp i would really be into tweaking or changing valves etc.
Headphones - I just want a headphone I can put straight on and find comfortable and hear everything as it should be, my only 'reference' is my TMA-1 [I love these headphones, but i want over ear for at home] so as long as it sounds a little [loads would be preferable
] better than these everything would be good. Again for my first serious headphone I don't really want to be changing or tweaking it out the box.
Currently reluctantly considering the HD650, feel free to change my mind.
EDIT. for got about the Beyer Dt800 £199 not sure which version to go for, haven't properly researched this one either, not too sure about the looks [not that it really matters]
