Audiophiles, recommend some headphones

OP just get the new Sennheiser HD800S.

What gives your sound system perfect sound quality?

OP, quit messing around and just go for broke, STAX SR-009 & WES amp. Then you don't have to worry about weeding through several headphones to find the best one.

I wouldn't buy the WES, not unless it was deeply discounted. I'd rather have the EC Electra.

HE-1000 at a great price.

I don't think the HD-800s are what the OP is looking for.
They're extremely detailed but too light on bass to enjoy rock or hip-hop music.

My vote would go for an Audeze LCD-3.
