Good inexpensive Sennheiser.

Hey guys. I'm just wondering what pair of Senns should I get for around 30-50 bucks. For the record, I've tried the following Senn products and I did not like them very much: HD218, 238, HD205. I currently have the EH150s, which I think are actually pretty decent. However, I still have to wonder if there is something a little better in that price range. 

 

Thanks.

What kinds of music you like? You want more bass, details?

I like just about everything. I listen to Jazz, Funk, Punk, Metal, Hard Rock, Classical, Techno...Folk, some Country even.

 

I like a good amount of bass, but I also really like details. I like non-veiled sound that still has some coloration, perhaps a bit of a warmer, darker sound. But still crystal clear. I know Sennheisers routinely get jumped on for having a veil, but I will reserve judgment for my ears. But yes, instrument separation is a must.

 

Truth be told, the EH150s do most of that pretty well, but I'm just curious.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I have already solved this! I got the HD 203s. I just made a thread about it actually.

I consider the beyerdynamic DT 235 to be the best inexpensive Sennheiser.

HD201!  They sound great after some burn in.  :)

+1 for HD201!

Very good cans for the money. But the amplification is obligatory, they're insensitive.
