Hello all,
I'm going to be spending the next academic year in Paris, France and I'm looking to invest in a good pair of headphones for my time abroad.
I'm by no means an audiophile; on the contrary, I'm a musician who spends most of his time listening to his iPod or computer.
Since I'll be spending a lot of time traveling (on planes, trains etc.), I'm looking for a reasonably priced, sturdy, comfortable pair of closed headphones that will cut out some outside noise. I'm not looking for top of the line, noise-cancelling cans. Unfortunately, the only closed headphone I'm familiar with is the infamous Bose Triport. (I'm not looking to spend $125). As far as price is concerned, I would like to spend less than $100.
Here are some of the products I've looked into thus far:

Any suggestions?
