Remade thread so people can know what I'm asking before they enter the topic...anyways im looking for closed cans for my ipod 4g for around 85-170$usd (100-200cdn). I listen mostly to rock/metal and piano recordings. Any input on this? (sennheisers are preferable if they have good models in the price range because i can order them for cheap)

You might want to consider the Sony MDR-7509HD. I've had a pair for about a week. While I've been at the office more than I like lately, but I've been impressed with the time I've spent with it.

I got my pair used for about $80. New, they run about $200 on eBay. However, eBay is running an 8% off coupon right now and Microsoft Live usually runs promotions, too. You should be able to fit one into your budget.
