I'm looking to spend up to $400 for some good all-around headphones. I don't have an amp, but I'll get one in a couple months if I need it.
 
I want them to excel in electronic music, but I'd like them to be able to rock too. I have AD700s and I like their warm sound, but I often find the highs shrill, and there is a lack of bass that I want to take care of. I don't need booming bass, just enough so it evens out the music, although I'm not opposed to a lot of bass.
 
The top contenders right now are the HD600s and DT880 600ohm. Help me choose! Still open to suggestions though. I read some good things about the Denon 2000s but I'm leaning towards the other two.
 
Thanks in advance!

You have good starting choices. Denons can have a sibilance similar to the Audio Technicas. The Senn and Beyers are much more smooth, but also become more laid back because of it. Denons are more exciting.

This is pretty much exactly what I was looking for:

I think I'm gonna go with the DT880 600 ohm version. Exciteddd

I bought some Senn HD600 from another member here and I am pretty happy with them..
My choice would be HD600 or HD650 as I have heard good things about them.
