Most people in the previous page are throwing wild guesses and what sounds like they are plotting random headphones for the OP when they themselves have not heard it..
I mean come on ESP 950? MDR F1??
@OP: If weight is a concern to you, I'd recommend you look into the T1, which kiteki has already mentioned, its Beyer's current flagship can and hearing it briefly once through a RWA amp, it is a slightly less refined but at the same time a very clear producing set of can's. To my ears, it is a bit more forward and the treble is slightly less pronounced then that of my HD800 (although I do not experience the bright treble peak that most HD800 users have).
If you ever change your mind with weight issues, the LCD2 + Violectric V100 = oh my goodness (upgrading to the V200 soon). Or a HE-500/6 + a Wooaudio amp (cannot be specific here because it depends on your budget, because the amp will cost alot more).
I'd avoid any high end custom IEM's as of now, since its your first and your venturing into the headphone territory, you can get a very decent combo pair with a top-end headphone + matching decent signature and sonically characteristic amp and then research and look into reviews for a CIEM to complement your headphone setup later on but a separate portable setup.
Hope this helped.
