V-Moda Crossfade LP or something else

For $108 I think it's a good buy, but I want to know yours opinion.

Currently I own a pair of Samsung in-ear phones. They're good: they have good bass and a good isolation, but not perfect, so I can hear some noises when the volume is low or if the noise is loud.

I mostly listen music with a lot of bass, but also music with mids and highs (sometimes).

For example Linkin Park's songs, or Two Steps from Hell's ones.

I'll use them for listening my music on bus, so I need a good sounds isolation and a good design. And they must be comfy, of course! ;)

I'm learning english, so I can't explain much better. I hope you understand. :)

If you don't, I'll use Google translator or I can mention other songs/singers/bands I listen.

So, what I'm asking is: are there some headphones (I'd like a over-the-ear pair, but also a on-the-ear one is ok) better than this ones?

In 110 dollars?

Thanks in advance! :)

They're on Amazon.com, so I think they're genuine.

If I want to be sure, what can I do?

If you are ordering from amazon, at the very least you can try them out and return them if you arent happy.  

 

They are extremely well built, very comfortable, and sound great for bass heavy genres.  For the price, I recommend them

Someone say:

"Unfortunately after a month I noticed the the inner plastic band where the metal adjustment bar that connects the phones to the padding the goes over your head had completely cracked on both sides of the headphones."

Have you or other guys here this issue?

I live in Italy, so return is a bit more expensive than usually. If I can, I'd rather avoid.

I think LPs will be good headphones for me, but if this problem is diffused maybe I should look something else...

I hope the guys who have that issue have an unfortunate pair.

P.s. The Amazon's price is the lower that I can find. Right?

I read about sales, something like 80$, but I can't find LPs at this price. Is it an old sale?

Can someone who own the LPs listen to this music and say if it sounds great or not?

Thanks in advance! =)

I choose some musics because of their different kind (I don't listen all of them). As I thought, LPs sound good with most of my music. :)

I'm really happy to read this! Now I'm sure that I'll purchase a durable pair, which is an important feature, imho.

I'm going to order them right now form Amazon!

Thanks a lot for everything! 

I'm writing now, 'cause in the last 2 days I was busy. 

I didn't buy the LPs... It takes about other 50 euros for shipping + taxes... My budget is not so large.

What other choises I have for about 80 dollars?

I saw the AT WS55s and the Pioneer HDJ500s.

Are there other similar cheaper choises?

P.s. I can order only from european shops (Amazon.co.uk and similar), so you might use those prices.

Thanks, but they're more expensive than LPs without shipping+taxes. With s+t their price increase again...

I'll look for something else or wait a discount in european shops.

How about the Phlips O'neil The Stretch?

The LPs cost about 110 $, my maximum budget. The ATs are too expensive...

The ZX700s are looking better (I'll use them mostly outside).

I'll read some reviews.

Thanks! :)
