+1 for the Ultrasone Pro   You can find them around 300 and at that price, can't be beat for what you're looking for (bass, looks, portability).  

I haven't used them, but I know that the Sony MDR-1R and Ultrasone Pro 900 are in that price range and are well regarded around here.  You'll also find them for a good deal cheaper than the beats pro.

I would suggest the Beyerdynamic dt880 and Sennheiser HD650.  I haven't heard the Beyers but I know they are well regarded around here and have great bass extension.  I own the Senns and they are great with R&B and vocals in general.  The Beyers are a bit cheaper and since amping is highly...

I think the best isolation for your price range is going to be the Etymotic er4p.  They are IEMs (so same issues mentioned by the other posters) but they can be found for ~$200 (U.S.) from 3rd party retailers on Amazon and below that used either on this forum or eBay.  I haven't owned or heard...

+ 1 for the iSport.  I bought a pair a few months ago, and they are awesome. Waterproof (and washable), stay in your ear, and have a sound signature that is perfect for working out (i.e. bass heavy). If you don't care about integration with your phone and have no qualms about appearing to...

Outkast - B.O.B. (Back when installing subs in your trunk was cool, this was the test track.)

With the recent price drop for the m50 at various online retailers, that would be my choice.  Very well regarded around here and a great value.  Just keep in mind that from a comfort perspective no closed headphone will compare with the 595s.  I've owned the 595s and the 280s before, and the...

I have the dba-02s and wearing them over the ear (as opposed to straight down) makes a huge difference.  

If you'll be running them unamped, I would also recommend the beyerdynamic dt1350s.  You can find them on Amazon for $200.

I would also suggest looking at the HD595s.  They are out of production but can often be found used for cheaper than both the 558s and 598s.  

Are the blue, black, and silver dragon the same as far as cable management goes?  I have a pair HD600s that came with the blue dragon cable, and I'm deciding whether I need a separate cable for the HD650s.
