as the title says i am looking for portable over ear headphones.
 
I am generally listening to classical/vocal oriented music with some electronic music as dnb,edm,house,...
 
I looked into the v-moda m100 and the senheiser momentum (is the m 2.0 worht it?). Are there any good options left as i would use them generally for traveling so they shouldnt be to big. Aswell i realy disslike the design from the like NAD hp50.
 
good things to have:
-detachable cord
-foldable
 
 
also ill buy them from : german amazon
PS: not using an amp or dac

AKG K545 could be worth looking into. Or maybe Focal Spirit Professional: http://www.amazon.de/Focal-H5007-Spirit-Professional/dp/B00EXO8Y3Y/r

Yeah I dislike the rectangular shape of the cups. They just don't fit me design wise.

About the focal pro and classic. The pro ones are described as neutral those that mean they are balanced on lows, mids,highs? Has one of those decent bass as well?

Well, how do they sound?

Just got them  morning so i have listened only 30min to them.
 
For now they sound very clear and detailed as i could hear from my classical library and i understand what neutral sound means now. The bass is punchy but it doesnt overpower other sounds. They look perfect and i had some doubts about theire size (overall and cups)  but they just fit me as they should.
