Hi guys, im new to this site, so please dont kill me if im doing something massively wrong!
Basically, im on holiday in Tampa, Florida, and ive only just got round to doing what i wanted to be doing here - buying tec! Its all so much cheaper here than back home in the UK, and the thing i really wanted to buy was some over-ear high end headphones. I own some little Senn PX200i's, and some little in ear buds, but to round of my audio collection what i really need is some over ear bigboys for my laptop and long journeys on my ipod. Im not that in to the teccy side of headphones, although im trying to learn, so dont drown me in figures that are too complicated.
Id be listening to almost any genre of music on them (Britpop/Indie/Soul/Rock/Pop/RnB... you name it...) so good all-rounders are a necessity!
Id be looking to spend about $150, but id go a bit higher for something thats much better and on offer nearby, but the real catch is that im only around for 1 more day, so a really concise and clear thread would be a great help!
I nearly bought some Audio-Technica ATH-M50s, as most reviews i saw said that they were the ones to go for, but now im finding some reviews that contradict that. My brother has some of those Senns that they always use on skysports etc, and they are amazing, but id really like something more comfy than them - kinda like the BOSE AE2s, but i found the quality wasnt that good on them, so basically you can probably see my confusion.
Id probably be buying from a BestBuy or Radioshack or something along those lines, so dont suggest anything too rare or i wont be able to find it.
So to sumarise:
Thanks in advance for any help, i really value it. Ill let you know how i get on!

So to sumarise:
- About $150
- Suitable for all genres
- Top end (or as close as the price allows)
- Over Ear
- Suitable for Ipod and Laptop
