I'm looking for a pair of white headphones below $300 or so. Looking for open phones with a focus on a wide soundstage, great detail (for that price point), and decent punch. Here are a few I know of and why I would like to look elsewhere:

AKG 701 Series in white = I have these in black, it's a decent pair of cans but lacking in punch.
Master & Dynamic MH40 in white = Just overall bad sound quality.
Hifiman Edition S Open/Closed in white = I love my Hifiman HE4XX ones but heard these are a big step down.

Does anyone know any other white headphones I should be looking at? Thanks in advance!

Other than what you mentioned, everything I personally am aware of is closed-back, unfortunately. The only other option that came to my mind is at a way, way lower price-point and that is the HD681 Evo. It's semi-open, good bass, but it certainly doesn't have anything like a K7-series type of stage, that's for sure. But it is a good value at its price-point, in my opinion.

Keep an eye out for the (now discontinued) Maple + Silver Meze 99 Classics.
