Recently I purchased the Xduoo X2 dap with Topping NX1 amp to pair, I had a Sennheiser HD518 to listen musics from my Nexus 6. 
I am looking for a new set of in-ear or over-ear headphones to go with my new setup, can anyone give me some suggestions?
My budget would be $100 for in-ear and $300 for over-ear (both open and closed back).
 
I will be getting a desktop amp soon, the impedance of the headphone should not limit them to suggestion.

Based on how your HD518 sound, what do you want to improve upon (or keep the same) regarding the relative amounts of bass/mids/treble?

I want less bass compare to the HD518, is sounds weired when I listen to some of the Jpop.
Want more clarity and details.
