My birthday is coming up and money is burning a hole in my pocket. I'm looking to get a new pair of headphones for ~$200. Currently I have HD595, DT770, and K240 mkII. I really enjoy all three and celebrate their differences. One of my goals in this hobby is to have a "broad palatte" and interesting collection.

I use an iPod Classic with line out and mini3.

I listen to a decent variety of music, but the headphone doesn't have to be an all-rounder. Open or closed doesn't matter, but I do prefer circumaural.

BeyerDynamic DT880?
AKG K601?
Sennheiser HD580?
Denon AH-D2000?

I'm leaning toward the AKG K601, because I've really enjoyed the K240 and the fact nearly no one talks about them intrigues me.

Anything suggestions? Even other than what I've listed?

Well...you've got a Senn, Beyer, and AKG. So, why not move East and go Denon?

Grado SR-225.

you need a rock 'n roll specialist in that group.
