Skull Candy? Hahahaha! Get a pair of Audio Technica, Grado or AKG K-series headphones and get back to me. After seeing all the snake oil that is sold as audiophile equipment, I immediately stopped trusting that group of people.
If you want a pair of speakers that reproduce what the engineer heard in the studio, get a pair of near-field monitors. They're much cheaper than audiophile speakers. If you want to go over the top, get acoustic tiles for your listening room or just use some heavy curtains and wall carpets. If you're still not happy, get a room correction system and a measuring microphone. As a bonus, this will correct your speakers too.
Some engineer will now tell me that I should not use electronic room correction. I don't care. My mixes sound more balanced when I use it, even after I turn off the correction.
