Not sure how this would keep up with some of the other choices around this price point, but a well amped AKG Q701 is a great all-arounder for the money IMO. Maybe a setup with an HD 650 or something like that would work better for this though.

Malveaux may have a pair of he500's for sale. You can pm him. If you like the Sennheiser's, I'd certainly have a good look at the hd650. Given your musical preference though you may want somewhat with more bass presence though. Consider:
 
He400-open, good bass, ortho and way under your budget (currently on recall, but the corrected/older driver is now arriving)
 
lcd-even better bass presence but you have to buy used
 
I'd go with the he400.
 
gL!!

Avoid the Senn 600 series.  Get a Grado RS-1i.

OMG, guys now tell what headphones are best for Pop, r&b, vocal, intrumental, and sometimes eletronic, hiphop and rock ex. (Evanescence)
I'm looking for Beyerdynamic t90, Sennheiser HD600/650 maybe HD700, AKG K702/Q701, Grado RS2i/RS1i, Hifiman He-500.
