My Technics RP-F200's have finally snapped in half and I'm looking for a replacement. The Technics cost £19.99 from Argos and I’m looking to spend about the same (maybe £10 - £20 more) on a new pair of phones.

They need to be closed (I do the odd bit of mic recording)
comfy
Cheap!

Any advice?

In this case, you'll have to severely compromise between comfort and sound quality. (In other words, you can't get both in the same headphone without spending a lot of money. )
You see, cheap closed headphones all suffer from serious drawbacks: Either you'd get reasonably good sound but terrible discomfort, or you'd get great comfort but horrible sound quality (may be unacceptable even for speech). And cheap closed headphones typically suffer from poor design (or more specifically, poor driver-to-housing matching): They tend to use drivers that are better suited for stock Walkman portable lightweight on-the-ear headphones - but they put those small drivers inside oversized shells! That combination results in excessive ringing and echoing noises.

Moreover, cheap headphones as a class are much less durable than some mid-to-high-priced headphones.

Hope this helps,
