I already have sony mdr v6's for desktop use, but i want something more portable for use with my ipod/etc. I am looking at hd 218/228/238, but what are the difference between these 3 headphones? i know the 238 is open but other than that they look the same to me. i'm also looking at the panasonic retro headphones (the ones offered in white, black, red, green etc whats a good portable headphone in the ~50$ price range?

There are so many topics just for this question, I don't know where to begin.

Px100 and Koss KSC75 (Both are pocketable), a very important quality to me when I'm not using my IEMS.

Please don't recommend earphones you haven't heard, it's not helpful.
 
@OP can you get the AKG K81 for that price? they're pretty good if that's your style, quite bassy sound but like all it's not without faults. Maybe this thread can help. http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/433318/shootout-47-portable-headphones-compared-maxell-dhp-ii-added-08-30
