no other options for the top stuff really. i went akg personally, they have a really full stereo image and the stuff i make on them translates to monitors (ns10, hr824) really well.

Did, for some time. Klein and Hummel O300s here
Cans are still useful though.
Standard answer:
Try them out thoroughly and buy the ones you like the best.

When it comes to mixing, monitors > headphones
