Looking for headphones under 200 bucks, mostly for EDM

I'm looking for a good pair of cans under $200, they will mostly be used for EDM and sometimes for some good ole fashioned indie and rock. They'll be coming out of a laptop or an ipod, so that is a consideration to take in. I'm open to any suggestions. Thanks!

For especially EDM I like the M-Audio Q40, excellent boosted bass response for this price with neutral mids and highs, nothing is missing, good detail, clear, not overly so. They work ampless and I enjoy them like that too but they do benefit from amping too, especially bass response gets punchier and dynamic range improved.

I second this, actually (you won't find me supporting M-Audio products much, as I've had bad experience with a few of their products). The Q40 is an oft-ignored, great starter headphone.
