If you're serious about mixing and want to train your ear you need pro headphones that are balanced in the highs mids and lows.
You want them to be as flat as possible akso. Open back is best for mixing. You should get the Sennheiser 600 HDs!!! Plus they very comfortable.
I have the ATH-M50X, they are closed back, they concentrate mostly on the lows. They take away from the true highs.
I have a great pair of OnAudio to reference on anything , like my cell.
You need balance , and flatness when dealing with headphones. And Ohms also, you may need a good headphone amp to make them really shine.
Peace
"Open-back headphones don't create a seal over your ears. Instead, they let sound leak out. As you might expect, the result is that music sounds less “muffled” and more “clear.” Additionally, open-backed headphones provide a better sense of dynamics and stereo imaging than closed-back headphones."
