You'd be surprised. Many (GOOD) producers and DJs of EDM are audiophiles and there're nuances in the music that either require a loud sound system, or proper headphones to hear them, which is where the music thrives imo. I mean, these guys might MAKE their music on computers, and machines, but the quality of music is no worse than Marley's records - many DJs still use vinyl to press digital music for arguably the best sonic performance, right?
I'd link a youtube video for example but I'm at work; Noisia - Could This Be, and Opiuo - Creamy Taco are a few tracks that have amazing sonic value, and in coloured headphones, they're nice, but the detail in these songs is really where they shine
I'm looking for a less coloured headphone than M-100, and more of a refrence headphone, than a 'DJ' headphone, for my DJing - When creating a painting, you want white light, so no colour is washed out, but painting in cool light, or warm light will still have great effect on the atmosphere of the final product. In a way, DJing with M-100s would be like painting the Sistine chapel in strobing orange/purple light lol. That's my line of reasing anyways haha.
So as much as I'm very happy with my M-100 purchase, I want something more balanced - perhaps even cooler and analytical - than M-100s, while still having that bass impact.
EDIT: Upon considering it, I've narrowed my choices to MOMENTUMS, MadDogs and DT1350s. Of the three, which Is most neutral along the highs and mids, with the best bass impact?
DT1350s and momentum headphones are more for reference headphones less djing. your m100s should do more than to suffice for djing. Look at the AKG line or denon. I don't think dj headphones these days wont cost you over $200 cause modern music doesn't have the same hi-fidelity sound as older live recordings cause everything is electronic these days.
