How Many Cans are Enough?!?

Remind of what my workmate said when asked what is the optimal number of bikes a biker should own.
Answer was, "n + 1, where n is what you have currently."

So true! That's why I'm trying to decide between, Shure, Audio Teechnica and Denon to be the maker of my next set. Plus I need something to replace my ATH-M10's as my portable rig.
Currently I own:
AKG K172 (for super clarity/critical listening)
Beyerdynamic DT770-por 80 (pleasant sound +MAD BASS)
 
Audio Technica ATH-M10 (portable)

I currently use two pair: HD 600s for home use and Ety ER4s for portable and home use. Both sound great through my Grace m902 but I am considering getting a tube amp (I have always benn a solid state guy) to try in my other set up.
 
I am really happy with both and really do not see the need for any others- may try an Audeze in the future, but the fear of becomming addicted to headphone rolling as so many here have sucumbed to has me "just saying no..."

"need" - a good way to put it. It's truly amazing how we justify what we need. I totally needed a second IEM too.

I am trying to cut down my inventory (by selling some) at the moment.
 
Right now, I have about 5 pairs in rotation.  Alessandro MS1 (which I am selling), the Jaycar Digitech Pro Monitors, Monoprice 8320, Koss PortaPros and the JVC FX101.
 
I also have about 3 other pairs just laying around my house, not in use.  Or brand new still in the boxes (which I am also trying to sell).
 
 
Once I get rid of about 4 of those pairs, I do plan on getting the V-Moda M-80 and hopefully be done buying for a while.

Trying to cut down my collection due to the fact that I need the funds and I'm trying to live more simply with fewer cans. It's always sad to see my cans go though. However, I feel a little more peace and get to bandage up my wallet. It's also good to pass them on to the community for a good price, so that someone can have the opportunity to enjoy them.
