I've been using IEMs exclusively for music and gaming over the past year, however, I've developed some issues that may indicate inner ear problems that could possibly be due to long term use of IEMs, so I've made the decision to switch back to using headphones. However, I am not in a quiet environment, and open-backs would be too distracting, I have to have closed.
My XLR interface's DAC can do good with 80ohms, Possibly 150 tops, and the 16ohm IEMs I use now still sound good through them as well, so quite the range. But I want to be clear, I am not a bass head. I do not want artificially boosted bass, I don't want a V shaped EQ. I want flat, accurate, and detailed.
The ATH-M40X are the first things that pop into mind. But I'm sure there are other options in the price range.
