The SRH840 are not bassy at all. They're not neutral, but if you "love bass", they will disappoint you.
Grados have a mid-bass hump, which is great for stuff like rock and maybe hip-hop, but not for electronic music, which is more sub-bas dependent. They have very little sub-bass, mainly because they are open.
If you had a smaller budget maybe also consider the Creative Aurvana Live, since they have the same driver as the Denon 1001. They usually go for than 100$, often less.
I haven't tried all of your options, and I know some of them are very highly regarded (HFI-580 looking at you), but I still think the SRH750 are your thing.
Really? Are you sure? I have owned both the srh750dj and shure srh840. They are nearly identical. the srh840 emphasizes midbass while the srh750dj has sub bass. Both have way to much bass for me.
