dont really want to spend to much since i got these for 17 from j and r and there just walk around headphones but i want something that has the fullness that these have..for rock and metal these are perfect for rap the bass is distorted but like i i just want the closest thing possible that has a y cable thats probably i say no more then 30-40 dollars and has that fullness sound that they do

JLabs J2 if you want to keep the muddy bass (might be more muddy than the CX300s actually IIRC). If you want an all-around upgrade at the cost of a little bit of bass quantity the Soundmagic PL21s can be had for around $21.

I bet the Audio Technica ATH-CKS50 would be something you'd like. I've got their bigger brother the CKS70s and I think you'd be impressed by the bass. They have a Y cable too!

if you really want a direct alternative to the cx300, you can get the akg k324p or creative ep630. but for the price there are now lots of alternatives around.

Are you wearing the J cord correctly? i.e. with the longer earbud cord round the back of your neck. I prefered J to Y.

The CX250 has a Y cable and offers a much clearer and more detailed sound compared to the CX300, all while having the bass you seem to desire. (Where's the basshead smilie when you need it?) They do sound different though they are much more refined overall.
