Considering buying these headphones. Any other ones in the same price range/category i should also be looking at for the price? Thanks!

You might look into the CAL's and the shure 440. Of the phones in that price range that I heard myself, I had an Equation RP21 that I liked a lot better than the v6, but I blew a driver. I'm not a big fan of the sonys...too bright and harsh, imo.

Sony 7506 and Sony ZX700 are a couple of headphones closer to the $100 range that you might consider.  Both are usually more expensive than the V6.  The V6 was selling for $65 before Christmas, but recent shortages have made the price jump up.

 

AKG K240 Studio

 

KRK 6400 and 8400 are also well respected around here, though the 8400 is probably outside your price range.

 

Creative Aurvana Live!  if you are just looking for a good set under $100.  They aren't suitable for monitoring work, but have a warm tone with a bit of bass bias.

Perhaps the HD280?
