Hey guys, I am like brand new to audio gear, and I was wondering if anybody could recommend me a pair of over ears, probably up to 80$, that will sound okay with classical music. Right now I have a pair of Sennheiser HD 202s, but they are way too bass focused for my tastes. I just don't know what to look for for classical music. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.

I think many folks might recommend a neutral headphone with a wide soundstage. Are you listening in public where sound leakage would annoy the people around you, or are you by yourself in a place where sound leakage won't matter? Open-back headphones usually have wider sound, but they do not isolate.

If you don't need isolation, you should consider Takstar Hi-2050.
 
Best Luck!
