So, not only is there a Momentum M2, there is a Momentum wireless Bluetooth with ANC. Personally not interested as wire do not bother me. What does is a small piece of technology breaking that would render the phones useless, such as say a slimline hinge, battery, amp/volume control, bluetooth receiver etc. It is not a matter of if but when and that is $500 down the drain (after the 2 year warranty). So very glad that they have it an option.

I asked this in a separate thread, but what are good complimentary headphones for the Momentum? I just got a pair of them last week and while I like them, the lack of sound stage and rolled off treble makes me want to get a complimentary open back pair of cans.

Beyerdynamic DT880

  Beyerdynamic DT880

+1 on this however if you are using them for portable use, you may look like a Spaceman/robot wearing them out in public. I also would recommend the 32 Ohm version.

Wow! Thanks for the recs! I think I should clear a few things up:

1: I had the Beyerdynamic DT990's Premium 32 ohm just before I got the Momentums. Due to circumstances (read: money), I couldn't have kept  the 990's and purchase the Momentums. I think the 990 would be the perfect compliment to the Momentums but I can't afford to get them in the near future. I doubt I'd be able to get the 880's or the K701 in the near future as well, unfortunately.

2: I'm not looking for another portable headphone. Just another complimentary headphone that covers what I feel like are the Momentums weak points.

3: My budget is probably around $150. Which isn't that high, but I think it'd be adequate to get me a solid pair of open back headphones. Even though I know I won't get anything that was as good as the 990's I had.

Does anyone have any experience with the Audio Technica ADxxx series of open back cans?

Maybe AKG K240.
 
If you can get the treble down slightly through modding, I would also recommend the Presonus HD7... I found it slightly piercing even after modding, but I'm quite sensitive to treble.

With the new wireless model is the noise cancellation always on? As in can you turn it off?

HD7 looks exactly like Superlux hd681b. 681 is 1/2 the price.

Looks and sounds are two different things.
Since I've never heard any Superlux I can't recommend it.
Have you heard any of the Superlux models?

true but I'd be willing to bet they come from the same factory.
