  i used ultrasone 580 and logitech ue6000.they were mainly bassy headphones lacking soundstage. the other day i listened to 35 $ jvc headphone of one my friend and it was amazing.it had great soundstage and it was great fun listening on that headphone. it seemed like the singer was singing in front of me

Which JVC was that? HAS400? HAS500?
 
Those have great detail, but are closed. 
If you liked the HAS400 or HAS500 then perhaps you should get the JVC HAS680?
Of the carbon nanotube JVC headphones, HAS680 is the best one so far.

All I can do is list my very favorite headphones under $120 that I currently own:


Creative Aurvana Live!

Sennheiser HD558

Sennheiser HD439

I like the UE6000 as my favorite budget headphone slightly more than these, however since you already had those, these 3 offer less bass, more treble and a bigger soundstage

(hd 558 is like 100 $ and the jvc is 58$)

The hd558 and hd518 seem like they'll need an amp.

The fiio e7 or topping nx1 + hd518 might be another option
 
I haven't heard them so i can't compare them head to head but its an open vs closed can. The open will almost always have a better soundstage.

Now you know why most people here have at least several  headphones.
 
For classical music the HD558 would be best. 
 
For Rock music the HAS680 may be better. The HAS680 also offers some isolation. I don't have the HAS680. I have the the HAS400.
The HAS400 has plenty of detail, and is very easy to drive. The HD558 is more difficult to drive.
