You will find most here think noise cancelling is another silly gimmick that uses more battery and $30 is too low of a budget to find any at the retail level. Most high-end stuff is the straight dope stuff with a wire ! I would go with either one of these for your use and budget: Koss...

It been over a month and I still have them, that in itself says something ! ...LoL

DXC Headphones - Full Size Headphones had the DR150, but now they seem to only carry the 100 and 50 only, they are selling on eBay also, the pair of DR150 went for $72.99 ! Also while you performing the cloth mod, remember to use a cotton swab with some rubbing achool to clean off the flux...

Grado SR60 or iGrado for iPods !
