Hifiman Sundara's honestly. I went down to my local HIFI shop after owning the HD 599 for a while and tried on Focal's, Grado, HD 600 and HD 800. The Sundara's suprised me. Rock solid among a sea of 1k-2k headphones, for around the £300 mark. Lovely bass texture, and although the treble is occasionally a little metallic/tinny, it's done in a way that i could never describe as incorrect or unpleasant. More than all of that, there's not a single genre or song that sounds bad. A perfect and budget friendly all rounder imo.
