Recommend? ... budget closed headphones for my cousin

[Quiet Pilot]

Helping my cousin look for some cheap *portable *closed headphones. Quality isn't much of an issue so probably something around 50 euros would do just fine. Are there any such models in that price range?

Musicwise we're looking at rock (Radiohead, Arctic Monkeys...).

Thanks for looking!

Hey Quiet Pilot --

You might want to start here; this recent thread dealt with a similar question, but in a somewhat lower (under $60 US) price range. You have a larger budget, but this thread should give you an idea of the low end of what you are looking for.

The only suggestion I can give you from personal experience are the Ety ER6s, which are IEMs at around $90 US. They sound great, but as with all IEMs, they are not necessarily for everyone. The thread I linked to has suggestions for traditional, over-the-ear cans.

The Equation Audio RP-15MC are about $50 new. They are great closed cans for the price in my opinion. They are very bassy headphones though and may look a little large for portable use though.
