I have a couple of 7506's and while they aren't super high fidelity,
they are fairly comfortable and non-fatiguing to my ears. They
fold up small enough to be reasonably portable, too.

If you're DJ'ing, though, you might want to think about Sony's
"DJ" series (V-7000, I think). They're supposed to have better
(well, more) bass output and might have better isolation than
7506's. This helps for beat mixing or if your speakers are
far enough away that there's a time lag to screw with your
mix timing.

Sure they are 7506s ? I can't imagine mine being described as lacking in
bass (any more might be totally unrealistic), or non-fatiguing to listen to
(unless upper mid-deaf already !) .....

And the 7506 have quite a sensitivity @ 60 Hz as well. If you want or need
more bass than that, I'd have a hearing test first.

More bass than the 7506 would indeed be more fatiguing. The question you
have to answer is whether you want a smooth ride, an accurate ride or one
that will give you a lot of over focused detail.

Smooth ride: Sennheiser 600, AKG 1000
Accurate ride: Grados
Over-focuse detail: MDR7506
