Good lightweight headphones?

Hi;
I have 2pr of headphones that I use for listening/editing music on my PC.
Sennheiser HD-497 weight: 4.8oz
Sony MDR-V600: weight 9.6oz

I like the Sony better, as they have a much better (clear, crisp) high end, and generally better lows and mids as well. But after wearing the cans for an hour or more, I start to have a stiff neck, and sometimes even slight headache. I realized that I never had this issue with the Sennheiser, which weigh half as much.

So, I'm looking for a headphone that has excellent sound (like the Sony MDR-V600), but weighs not more than 5oz. And I don't want to spend more than about $100.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

FW
