Thank you very much for your response. This helps out a lot.
Just a few further questions though. How does the CAL! compare to the Panasonic HTF-600, HARX700 and the monoprice 8323? Those were really the only other things that I was considering, but for some reason I didn't list them before (heard the panasonic had questionable build quality, the monoprice has zero sound stage, etc. But at the time I was looking for reviews between the 668B and them, not the CAL!).
Have you heard the 668B with enough burn in time? I read that the treble on them tames back quite a bit with enough burn-in time (~150 - 200 hrs). Is that assessment of yours being bright before or after burn in?
And finally, since most of what I'll be listening to for the forseeable future is 128bit MP3, are all of these cans going to be so "good" that I won't hear any difference between them? I'm still in school right now, and don't want to be overspending if you know what I mean.
Thanks again for the help

Your best choice from this group is the CAL! While it's not really neutral, it has a balanced and natural sound. The CAL! is far from basshead territory.
The Superlux is an excellent can for money, but it has that bright spike.
The bass on both is good--better than average--for a balanced can the under $100 segment.
