I got myself a pair of DT 990 Pro by Beyerdynamics. They are really

sturdily built. But then again, they are an open design and that might

not be suited for your usecase..
I really like them though. And by that I mean in the same sense as I

like my Yamaha HS80M monitors. They are pretty neutral. I guess you can

throw hundreds or thousands more at listening devices, but personally I

think I have hit exactly the sweet spot with these purchases between

quality and expenses..
