You won't be dissappointed with the SRH440, they are balanced and don't have weak bass. However, If you want bassy-heavy headphones you will need to look elsewhere.
Good looks, and portability....if you are those who dont give much importance to sound signature.
I think the CAL! would be your best bet.
Actually, if you can get a pair of used HD25-1 (not II) i've seen them go for less than 100 quite a few times, and they pretty much blow away everything listed so far. In pretty much every category (except looks, though i dont know what you consider 'good looking', as I like the simplicity of the hd25).
However finding them is a pain... not many people have the hd25 in the first place and fewer still have the hd25-1 and not the hd25-1 ii, and fewer still have a well used pair for sale
listened to a friends pair of the CAL and loved them, same with the hd25 which was considerably better... though not as comfy (but very close!).
This sucks! I have to decide by tomorrow on which headphones to buy.
So far, I'm still really torn between the Panny HTX7's, the JVC RX700's, the SRH440's, and the M50's. I'd prefer spending less money as I am a university student. But I really don't know which to get. I'm leaning to the HTX7's only because they look good and supposedly sound decent and can be modded. The 440's are tempting too..
EDIT: Would the 440's sound OK unamped through my Zune HD? When using unamped, what would work better; the 440's or the HTX7's? That will be my final verdict.
