I need to find my mom some budget headphones but real good music quality mainly for ipad/iphone, would like some good bass but more importantly good balance.  Any suggestions?
 
Thanks

Koss KSC75 - $15
Sennheiser HD201 - $20
JVC HAS700 - $30
Panasonic HTX7 - $30-40
 
I owned the first 3. Soundwise, the Koss KSC75 wins, but they're clip ons and are extremely open. JVC HAS700 is a comfort king with memory pads like the Bose AE for a lot cheaper, and they have bass. They look nice too. I'd love to try the Panasonic HTX7, if only because they're well received here and look amazing. I found the HD201 to be nice and neutral but uncomfortable as heck.
