Hello all! This is my first post on the forum so I hope that I have put it in the right place.
 
I am in the market for some headphones to be used in my bedroom 'studio'. I will probably be using them for recording, mixing and mastering my tracks (altough I understand that one set of headphones aren't designed to do everything and will show weaker points in some areas). Of course a set of headphones cannot replace a decent pair of monitors, but I really can't afford a setup like that at the minute.
 
So, I have been looking at the AKG K44, K77 and K99, but did not want to restrict myself to one brand, so need some help. Roland RH-5s also look quite good for the price.
 
I am concentrating on semi-open and closed back headphones, as from what I have read, fully open backed headphones aren't great for much besides recording.
 
I would appreciate some reccomendations on headphones fit for the purposes described, priced between £20-~40 (as I am in the UK).
 
Cheers!

For around 60 bucks (40 pounds) here in the U.S, you can get those three AKG models, and the akg k121,k141,and audio technica ath m30s. I don't know of much more, but if you pony up a tiny bit more cash, you can get the k240S, which is absolutely excellent for monitoring, and enjoyable listening.
