Hello!
 
First post here*
 
Looking to buy my first pair of decent over ear headphones. Here is what I want out of a pair of headphones:
  1. Maximum $80 price tag
  2. Portable
  3. Over Ear
  4. Noise Cancelling (no open ones)
  5. Good for listening to indie rock and electronic music (bands such as Purity Ring, Flight Facilities, Sleigh Bells, etc)
  6. COMFORTABLE! (it would be nice if they are fairly cool looking as well)
 
I really want to be able to hear the layers in my music.  I don't want to be bombarded by the bass but be able to appreciate it.  Most important thing is the sound quality and ability to listen to the many layers in each track.
 
So far I have been looking at:
Kicker HP541
Superlux HD668B
Creative Aurvana Live! Headphones ( I love the look of these!)
Sennheiser HD 202 II
 
I have also hear the Koss PortaPros are really good but may be too noisy for me :/
 
Let me know what you think, I could really use the help! Thanks!
