I currently have a pair of Senn 555's, my first real headphones. They are probably the best thing I have ever bought, but I've had them for a couple years and they're starting to show a bit of wear and I'm looking for an upgrade.
Seems like upgrading to 595's would be boring, but maybe they're the best choice for me. 650's would be great, but I think that's a bit too far out of my price range, and I don't have an amplifier in my setup, though I do plan on getting one sometime in 2010. Something around $200 that's a good value would be perfect. I'm flexible though, just don't think I can afford to spend $400 on 650's and I don't want to buy used headphones.
The stuff I listen to is mostly "indie" stuff. Anything between poppy electronic music like MGMT to more orchestral melodic stuff like Grizzly Bear and Sufjan Stevens. The hardest rock I normally listen to is stuff like Built To Spill, Modest Mouse and Dinosaur Jr.
