I have been doing a lot of research. I have looked into Sennheiser HD 439 but a lot of reviews say that Sennheiser is not known for bass. Just good quality sound. I will not be using a sound card or amp. I will plugging these headphones straight into my iPhone. I listen to dubstep and remixes and i like to blast my music. Does anyone know a good headphone thats over the ear, comfortable to have on for an hour, durable, great bass, noise isolating and under $150?
 
Beats are too expensive. 
Sennheiser is comfortable but doesn't have good bass apparently.
Audio technica has slightly better bass but they're uncomfortable.
Grado isnt a good looking pair of cans to me, the aesthetics aren't my type.
 
 THIS ISNT WHAT I THINK. These are just what i see in reviews.
 
SO can anyone find me a good pair of headphones with the following features?
-Circumaural
-Good sound quality / bass
-Comfortable ( no pain, ears don't sweat, etc.)
-Good looking
-Somewhat Portable ( I'm not going to be exercising, but I want to bring them around with me, so maybe collapsible or comes with a case?)
-Obviously has to fit into my iphone
-Durable/Good quality ( not flimsy plastic, not a thin cord)
-Also i don't like the "Y" cord, I prefer a single sided cable)
-$150 or less
 
If you can find a headphone that best fits this description I would be very thankful.
 
For the "looks" what i find decent or attractive are basic designed headphones like sennheiser, bose( although too expensive) and the ugly ones (IMO) grado, schure, and beyerdynamic. I DONT MEAN TO TRASH YOUR FAVORITE HEADPHONES. I really hope you guys can help me.

What about Audio Technica ATH es7
 
They are pretty beautiful cans, portable, with good bass and probably a lack of mids, but people are happy with them.
 
What are your opinion about them? Im new here, this is my first post, actually. Hi everyone.
