DT 770 Pro 80 Ohm and uDAC-2 for a DAC and Amp in one. Should fit your budget nicely and give you the bass you'll want for trance.

Was gonna suggest that lol oh wells...or you could go for the ATH-M50/SRH750DJ :O

does the udac-2 have enough power to power the dt770 600 ohm?

 

[Abovetheair]

no

I believe it supports up to 300 Ohms. 770 80 Ohm has the most bass though.

 

[eMpAtHy]

any options for a amp/dac besides the headroom total bithead in this price range?

 

[Riku540]

To drive 600 Ohms? I don't think anything in that price range will, uDAC and Bithead included.
 
The FiiO E7/E9 bundle just came out in the Micca store for $200; cheapest option I know of.

 

[magliter]

The one's i keep seeing are 250 ohms

 

[Riku540]

Search for DT 770 "Pro". There Pro version comes in 80/250 Ohm and is different from the consumer 32/250/600 Ohm version.

X2. This or a pair of Denons (and maybe a DT990). I honestly hated the DT770/80 Pro though. I guess different strokes for different folks.

 

[Riku540]

Honestly I recommend Beyer's because I have not had the pleasure (or money!) to try Ultrasone's and Dennon. Someday though.... someday.

If you want really punchy tight bass that goes really deep, then go with the DT770 Pros...DT990 is open and so the bass isnt really punchy and tight and stuff like that....I mean if OP is getting these headphones for techno/dubstep/D&B/Trance/hardstyle/Hardcore...those kind of stuff then i suggest DT770 Pros [they do well with other genres too

]....DT990 isn't really fit for techno and all that stuff...it's fit for and stuff like that...correct me if im wrong but thats what my ears are telling me

I was very impressed with the HFI-580, when I gave it a quick run.
