I've always been happy with my 280s until now.  I recently picked up some Beyerdynamic DTX 102 ie for my wife and they are way better than my 280s in every way.  The 280s are extremely bright and I never noticed how much it affected the quality of the music I listened to. 
 
They gotta go.

What source(s) will you be plugging the headphones into?
Budget for new headphones?

$200 budget.  Source is my X-Fi Titanium HD.  It works, the 1x slot in my motherboard is just weird so I moved it.

 
You might consider budgeting for a headphone amplifier you could plug into the Titanium-HD's RCA jacks.
A $60 FiiO E11K would be better at driving headphones, then plugging headphone straight into the Titanium-HD's headphone jack.
