Can anyone point me to some good value over ears that are available on soundearphones.com? The grado sr80i's look good for 75, but I was thinking something higher end. Maybe in the order of 300, and coming down to 225 with the sale? Preferably something thats already a good value at the original price.

Since you had your eye on the SR80is, why not step up from them. The SR225i?

The SR80 and SR225 aren't over-ear, they're on-ear, but you can turn them into over-ears by adding the G-Cush pads.

Well, I've heard the sr225i's aren't really a worthwhile upgrade over the sr80i's.
What do people think of the Ultrasone HFI-780's, and the AiAiAi TMA 1's? I listen to a lot of electronic music.

You heard wrong.  The SR225i is not only a significant upgrade from the 80's, but is also viewed by most who know Grados as the sweet spot in the SR line.

If you want an Ultrasone 780, then just go buy it on Amazon where's $157 right now.

 I think that was posted before, but the discount was $30 IIRC. It's certainly hard to get these at a discount.

My HFI-580s were amazingly amazing on electronica but so-so with anything else.
In fact, with such emphasized bass/treble and the S-logic thing going on, they made everything sound like electronica anyway.
 
Grados for electronica seems bleh.

soundearphones.com price matches, hence you could price match it for $157, then use the gift cards for a further discount of around $37.50, putting the grand total around $120.5.

There are some exclusions to prevent combining with other promotions, but they do allow stacking the gift certificates.
