Ugh! The Superlux HD 681 is still on the recommended list! Personally, I have found that this is the absolute worst headphone I have ever used. You get horrible ergonomics and the absolute worst treble. The treble is so loud and abrasive that it induces headaches. You say that they’re balanced. Well, think again because that treble will make you deaf. Around $50, just get the AKG K52, K72 or K92. They’re probably not the most detailed for the price. But they sound enjoyable without any harshness and the comfort is on point. 

while I dont agree on the superlux comment I can vounch for those headphone's comfort those cheap pads are so comfortable I took it off my k52 and put it on me k240 to creat possibly te most comfortable headphone ever made more comfortable than the takstar pro 82 maybe.
