What headphone would have a similar signature to the Shure SE110?

I just got a new pair of IEM's and slightly miss my SE110's. The UE's sound better but I miss the beautiful treble (not the bass anemicness). The guitar just doesn't have the same impact anymore. I am guessing Grado/Alessandro would be somewhat similar?

Try the Shure SRH240 or the Audio Technica AD700.

Not really, but to be honest I don't like Shure products much. However, I actually think the SE110 sounds like trash and the SRH240 sounds similar, but better.
 
Also regarding the SF5, I didn't like them until they were recabled with silver cables. Stock the highs were too grating on my ears. With silver cables they shimmer and have a really clean sound with great separation.

Oh you mean the flat, grey/silver one and not the one that looks like the TF10? Haven't heard those yet.

I always wanted to try those out, they look infinitely better than the old SF5 and if reviews are to be believed, sound better too out of the box. They probably fit better, too. The reason I sold my TF10 was the fit, that and I was looking for something more laidback and relaxed. But to this day I still miss the sweet highs of the TF10.
