My sister needs some headphones for her Iphone (music), I gave her some used CALs (Creative Aurvana live), but it seems some previous owner had gotten perfume or cologne on them which she is allergic to, so I would like to replace them with some headphones in the $25-$30 range, any ideas?

For constant portable use yeh?

JVC HA-150s seems to have some good reviews, but still looking.

How about JVC's HARX500 and 700?  These guys are well regarded around here and there are some mods available if your sister is ever interested.

add panasonic RP-HTX7 to your list. They are cheap and sound good for the price

Yes, the Panasonics would be a great idea. Also, your story made me laugh.

The JVC HA-RX700 are a little too bulky for her use.

Hm, do you think replacing the pads would get rid of the allergens?

I ended up giving my sister some refurb Sony XB500s that I did not like and she is ok with.
And the best part is I got the CALs back, which I had gotten emotionally attached to.
