**Edit: No longer bound to Best Buy**
Hey all, I'm looking for my first pair of decent headphones. My price limit is $150. I would occasionally like to use them on the go, so something like some HD558s, or any open/overly bulky 'phones are not preferred. I listen to quite a few genres, including EDM, alternative, rock, and some grunge. I'm looking for something with good bass (like every budding audiophile), but I want a clean, satisfying bass that doesn't affect the mids or highs vs. an overpowering bass. I also really like detachable cables.
Here's the catch: I would much prefer something from Best Buy since I have around $60 in gift cards there. I know prices are high there, but they match Amazon's prices so it doesn't really matter.
Some headphones I was considering are ATH-M50s (w/ removable cable mod from Sound Pros), HFI-780s, and UE 4000s. Neither of those first two are available at Best Buy, however. Worst comes to worse, I just use the money to best buy on something else, but again I'd really like to save the cash.
Thanks in advance!
