Hi everybody, it's been a while since I've posted on this forum but I'm back to ask for some help from people who know what they're talking about!

I currently own a pair of V-MODA Crossfade M-100 and have had them for over 3 years now. I amp them with a FiiO E11. They sound pretty good but I'm definitely looking for an upgrade. I was thinking about the Sennheiser HD700 but they get mixed reviews, any thoughts on those cans and any others you would recommend would be great. I would of course be willing to get a new amp to go along with them. I have a budget of around $450. I listen to all ranges of music, but most often I listen to rock, alt rock, acoustic, metal, hip-hop and various genres of electronic. Classical is an occasional favorite too. Preferably something with a rich, deep bass and a non-muddy, wide sound but anything you would care to suggest would be appreciated. Thanks to anybody who takes the time to respond.
 
P.S. I'm also a cinephile and enjoy watching movies with my cans, and I will watch the occasional podcast.

Beyerdynamic T90, get some used ones off eBay.
The E11 can easy drive them, what are you using as a DAC?

No need for used, it appears they are well within my budget on Amazon. I'm not currently using a DAC, I was just using the amp with my V-MODAs because it was recommended to me by someone, was a cheap option and significantly improved the sound quality. I'd be happy with a recommendation for a DAC if you have one.
