I think it's personal preference really.

 

The XB and JVC have loads of bass and are comfortable with more isolation. (the XB will have much more bass then the JVC's which are also very bassy)

 

The SR850 has a good balance of bass and clarity and has an amazing soundstage.

 

 

SR850 is very well balanced so pretty much any type of music or music will sound good coming out of it.

JVC/XB is better for electronic/bassy types of music and comfort/isolation

 

 

I should also add the SR850 are a clone of the Superlux HD668b which are probably one of the most reccomended pair of headphones below $100

 

I personally would go for the SR850.

Superlux HD668b or the Samson SR850?  What's the difference?

Nothing except the design of the headphones. If you put both on blindfolded you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. The SR850 MIGHT have a little more bass because they do clamp slightly harder to your head.

Superlux HD668B, 56-Ohm, comes with two detachable cables.

Samson SR850 (made by Superlux) 32-ohm, fixed cable.
