hey guys, ive shortlisted ath sj-11,sj33,re70; sennheiser hd 202 II, Sony MDR XB400, my budget is kinda low, around 2000-2500 INR (40$-50$) i listen to rock,rap,metal and house.

so pls tell me which ones will be the best based on comfort,portability,sound quality and value for money or if u think you of a better pair of headphones pls tell me.

thanks!

Save a bit of money and buy the koss dj100. They are my favorite closed headphones under 100 dollars. They are aggressive sounding but also offer nice bass for electronica.

The 219's leak sound, you don't get the full effect of the bass. They are very bright. Pass

Get the HD 203s.

im only a casual listener, also ive heard from a lot of ppl that using of hd 203's for longer durations can cause your ear to hurt and also are quite heavy and the wire is long and for me portability and comfort is an issue so i dont really care about the noise leakage so would hd 219 be a better choice now and i also have my eyes on jbl tempo. 

sorry for asking so many questions, i really want something thats VFM and yeah im not that rich so i wont buy another one for a long time.
