headphones for studio monitoring

ok i've been using the same old cheap JVC headphones for the last 10 years, my ears pretty much shaped around them. and i always use them to check mixes and compare to my monitors and other stuff. but i think its time i get something decent. i'm looking for closed back headphones. i tried out BOSE headphones and was quote impressed, i heard stuff that i never heard in my monitors before, and they have a nice stereo field. but maby not ideal for mixing, its lekka to listen to music on those. Can anyone recommend something i can go look at? like sennheisers, sony or something else, and model names ? thanks

I've had a pair of Beyer DT-150's for over 20 years now and they still work perfectly......on their second head padding and third set of muffs.... 8) 8).....and the original Neutrik Stereo Jack I fitted to them when I bought them new........

I've yet still to find a better set of cans for monitoring.....I also use them live for setting up a mix without the PA up and get very close to the right results every time.....

For Me...DT-150's FTW......
