I am still having extremely hard time deciding what headphones to get.
 
So I am making my millionth thread and hoping to get some suggestions.
 
I am looking for closed headphones which do not have airy sound. I want bass, I want balanced sound with maybe little bit of brightness. Big plus would be if they could be driven from O2 amp + dac without a problem. I don't want anything which reminds me of open headphones, the airy feeling is just not for me. If new amp is needed so be it and that doesn't need to be included in budget. 
 
Budget well let's try to keep it under 1000€
 
I currently use Shure 846 with bright filters. 
 
I listen to hardcore techno, pop, rock, metal. 
 
 
I have tried out Oppo PM3, LCD-XC which I both loved.

+1 on PM-3
 
Others:
 
P7
HP50
Mad Dog Pro/ Alpha Dog/Alpha Prime
ZMF Vibro II or Omni
The (Massdrop) TH-X00 Purpleheart, dropping as we speak.
 
These are all options with different strength and weaknesses but that are worth checking out. Good luck!
