    Grado SR-60i. Extremely accurate and precise sound. Ask any audiophile; they are the best <$100 headphones by some margin.

    http://www.headphone.com/headphones/grado-sr-60i.php or basically any high-end audio store.

        I bought the audio technica ath-m50's. I'm very impressed with them. Sound better than the beats by dre to me and they are around $100.

            I have 2 pairs of Shure headphones. One was not that expensive, and sound really good. The other pair was ridiculously expensive, but they are awesome. I'm just not a hell of a lot of help here, am I?

                            Yup why spend so much on headphones when you can get it for like under 10 at walmart. But i tried out the beats by dre and its pretty cool

                                    It's hard to go wrong with Sennheiser.

                                    I researched and bought Sennheiser CX300-B Earbuds for $30. They have better sound than my Bose earbuds.

                                      I got the Bose Around Ear Triport headphones. I've had them for a couple years, great sound. On Ebay you can find them for under $100 now.

                                      Cue all the speaker snobs trashing Bose in 3....2......1........

                                          Another vote for Sennheiser HD series here.

                                          I personally use the HD 595. It really does sound like the girls are on top of me.

                                            Anyone now if Bose's are any ood? I know they jack up the price just for the Bose name though.

                                              Beats are overpriced, like pretty much anything made by Monster.
                                              I recommend Sennheiser.

                                                          You may want to consider a Bluetooth stereo headset.
                                                          The sound is great and most come with an adapter so you can listen from any source with a headphone jack opening, bluetoooth or not.

                                                            I recommend Sennheiser.

                                                              Beats by dre are sick but pricey and techniques are worth it...i just use my iphone headphones for jogging...any headphones around 100$ or more should be good quality...no walmart brands though GL

                                                                beats by dr. dre

                                                                Best I have used are Sennheiser, all they make are headphones and they are dam good and not expensive. Read the reviews on Amazon.

                                                                If you need noise cancelling and/or want to spend a little more money klispch has some good in ear headphones.

                                                                I wouldn't waste my money on Dr. dre beats, go with either the best speaker maker, klispch or the best headphone maker Sennheiser
