hey guys, im sick and tired of using in ear headphones so im looking to get over the ear headphones. i mostly listen to electro/house music but also hip hop and rock so i want some headphones with some bump. heres an example of what i listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fS7K-shd64I i will be using them at home on my laptop and wear them to class with my ipod ( i have no intentions of getting an amp) . i dont want any headphones that leak, and preferably want some the are collapsible/ fold. not willing to spend more than 125. im no audiophile i just want some good bang for my buck quality headphones.
 
right now my options are 
 
 

[size=1.7em] Shure SRH440 [/size]

 
 

[size=1.7em] Audio Technica ATH-ANC7B[/size]

 
denon hp 500
 
if you guys have any recommendations feel free to help me out. i just dont want to make the mistake and order something that doesnt suit me

Allow me endorse the SRH440.  As an owner of the SRH440, I can assure you you'll find an exceptionally smooth, clean and clear sound signature that has great detail and a bass that very well controlled.  You will literally discover nuances in your music that you've never heard before.  So go ahead and get 'em, I have a feeling you won't regret it.

thanks for your feedback. i was leaning towards the shures they seem like a good value. do you know anything about the other headphones? thanks in advance

also looked into the ANC7B a little more and theyre not for me. dont need noise cancellation just need some closed cans

Hmm, I don't have experience with the Denons although its specs look pretty good and Denon is a very reputable company.

so are the shures good for electronic type music ( i need some good bass) also i read they are a little heavy and not to comfortable? also someone recommended ATH-M50 know anything on them? btw thanks a lot man

Hmm, if you need a stronger than neutral bass response then maybe the M50s might be better for you?  Although, I think the SRH440 wouldn't fare too badly here.
