For mixing I'd always recommend the AKG K1000 (powered by a suitable amp). IMHO, they're unique in their resolution and flat frequency-response (down to 50 Hz, diffuse-field). Actually they behave more like mini-monitor speakers in front of your ears than a pair of headphones. That said, any bass mixed on these needs some serious double checking in the real world.
