Closed + Over-ear + Music composition + Budget US$300 headphones:

[+] Audio-Technica ATH-M50 (fixed cable)
[+] Shure SRH840 (detachable cable)
[+] Sony MDR-CD900ST (fixed cable)
[+] Sony MDR-1R (detachable cable)

The CD900ST seems to be hard to find outside of Japan so I doubt I can get to try them anytime soon.
As for comparison, how does it compare to the V6 and its 'siblings'?
