None of the headphones listed are particularly expensive owing to sound quality. The ground floor of low-end hi-fi, decent passive wired headphones starts around $200-250. Essentially, all of the expense is going to the drivers in the headphones.

Ah. I'm running DT 1470s balanced on an A90 & Modi Multibit.

No, though... I've wanted to try the 1990s. I like the balance of the 1470s. They have strong bass response but maintain a clean (but not too aggressive) top end. I run Sennheiser HD 650s for open back/airy clarity typically.
