I have the Pioneer SE-M290 headphones, which have been holding strong for 2 years. However, I need a pair of cans which are more portable, unlike the big and bulky Pioneers. I need them to be able to cancel noise effectively and not leak any sound, as I plan to wear them everyday on my commute to school on the noisy bus. Im looking for something less than $100 which can fit my needs. I'm so far considering Skullcandy Aviators or Marshall Majors, so if you guys have any input on those, please go ahead.

What kind of sound signature do favor? It appears as though you may be a devoted basshead.
