So uh, I heard you like Shures?
I just got the SRH840s today, and I'd revise my list as follows:
1) Grado SR225s - They're uncomfortable but damn are they fun to listen to.
2) SRH840s - Every complaint I had about the 440s (Pads, Headband) disappeared and they're so much more detailed.
3) SRH440s - Even slightly uncomfortable, they're a damn fine pair of cans for the cost, also they were my first "good" cans so there's that.
4) Ultrasone HFi-580s - You know the more I listen to these honestly the less I like them. They have such a niche sound to me now compared to my other sets. They're great for mau5 & Daft Punk, some hip hop, but honestly I think at this point I even prefer the Grados for thing like Jay-Z. This pair might end up on sale soon.

 
 
I like my Shures the same way I like my whores....Plentiful. LOL But yeah 840s are some of the best cans under 500$

There are more but can't remember (many I've sold over the past or auditioned). I'll add more later. Also some where so close that it was hard for me to choose which should go above the other. For example, the sh840equed is very close to the denon d2000 in preference.

Made a small revision. HD-598 has gone past the K501, but only after recabling it with an HD-650 cable. What the heck?! To me it sounds better than the Mogami, Canare and Belden. Weird.
HD-598 is just a little more musical/fun to listen to. Still love the K501 though, especially the soundstage. It's not going anywhere EVER. Not a fan of the HD-598 stock cable at all.
 
 
DJ100 and 6400 are my primary portable headphones. Both are very different, but DJ100 is a lot more fun to listen to due to it's bass. DJ100 and HD-598 have my favorite sound signatures.
HD-598 fans may like the DJ100. I hope so.
 
Everything else is not used very much.
 
1) Koss Pro DJ 100 (M50 pads)
2) HD-598
3) AKG K501 (V.1)
4) KRK KNS-6400
5) AKG K601
6) AKG K240 Sextett (finally got it sounding good!)
7) AKG K240 Studio
8) Audio Technica ATH-M50 (only with amps with forward mids)
9) Maxell DHP-II (hidden gem)
10) Beyerdynamic DT-235
11) Grado SR-80
12) Sony XB500 (EQ only)
13) Superlux HD-668B (not a signature I like, but it should be higher)
14) Audio Technica AD300
15) Audio Technica AD700

Kinda wish I had multiple pairs of headphones again. With a jack-of-all-trades headphone I'm pretty satisfied with just one though. I just hope I can trade them for a closed jack-of-all-trades headphone.

I don't know how my new MDR-SA3000 would rank. Maybe just under the K501.
 
I also have a KSC75 recabled with Belden 1192A and attached to PortaPro headband. Forgot to rank it.

When the T1 comes in at number 5, then you have listened to some expensive cans...
 
Out of curiosity, why did you sell the R10?

Love:
LCD 2 Denon D 7000 and JH 16 pro 
I use them for different types of music and -lucky me-each one I'm listening to sounds like the best.
 
 
Hate:
Grado Sr 325is
 
 
I had edition 8's which I liked except for the S logic which just didn't work for me
