Need a replacement for my ols Senn HD590's

Just bought a new sound card which is capable of running my old Senn HD590.
I now need a replacement for my separates system.
My system is old but I love the sound it gives.

CD: SONY XB930
AMP: NAD 360
Tuner: Denon
SPEAKER: B&W 602 with ARCAM stands.


Music consists of mostly Prog, 60-70's Rock and Folk, and Indie.
So lad's and lasses I have £150 to splurge and need your Audiophile experiences.

I'd recommend the HD595 normally as you've been using the HD590 but from your musical taste why not try the Grado models (or Alessandro equivalents).

The only thing that puts me off Grados is comfort. I do like a late night listen with a nice Brandy and have been found the next morning on the couch, fast a kip in my Senns, which I dont think would happen in Grado's on ear design!
So over ear design a must.
