The title says it all. I have two options in mind. I can get some SR-225s or DT770/80. I am also open to new suggestions. I mostly listen to rock. My favorite bands are currently The Mars Volta, Coheed and Cambria, Dream Theater, and A Perfect Circle, but I also like to mellow out to Pink Floyd and Death Cab every now and then. I would also like to be able to use them for some light gaming. I only get to play a couple times a month, but it would be nice to be able to use them for that.
Comfort is an issue for me. I like being able to keep them on for hours. Also, I don't care as to whether they are open or closed. If they are open, I will have to silence my PC, but that isn't a big deal.
I would like to keep them as cheap as possible. I already have a Pimeta that I build a few months ago so no amp will be necessary.
I am only 17, and I don't like spending money. If you have any other recommendations, go ahead and give them to me.
-Side Story (Read only if you are bored!)-
I was actually not upset when my K81DJs broke. I have been using them for my home setup since around March. I fell asleep on a long car ride once, and then, to my dismay, the left arm bent a little. (Odd, because I was sleeping on my right side.) Anyways, I bent them back, but they weren't perfect. Whenever I would wear them, they would end up bending back. Today, I finally decided to try to bend them back to normal. *SNAP!* I have wanted a new pair of phones for a while so that I could make these my portable cans. Well, this gives me an excuse to tell the parents when they see them arrive at our door. After I have bought them, I will see if I can get a new band for the DJs, because I love them as portable phones.
-EDIT- I looked back through 35 pages to see if I could find some answers, but no posts have really been in my price range. Most are set for under $100 or over $200. I know you guys get bombarded with posts like this everyday, but I really appreciate it.
