Yo, I would like to buy a nice pair of headphones. I want them to be good loking and sleek. It doesnt matter if they will be over or on ear, but I want them to block outside noise weel cause I am going to listen to theese on the bus or in the city. Also I would like some good overall sound qualitty and a sturdy construction. Is there something for me? PS: It has to be UNDER 130 dollars. Thanx in advance

Audio Technica ATH OR7 looks nice
so does the ATH ES7
 
Both can be bought around ~100

I was thinking about the skullcandy agents... Does enyone have some experience with those?

x2 for the ES7. They look really nice, and the sound is great for a portable can.
 
The only problem is that they're not really good in blocking sounds, so you'd have to turn the volume up a bit.

Most members here at head-fi are past their teens. They're into classier looking things that actually sound good.
 
You wont find any love for skullcandy agents here..  only the Aviators for some.

NOPE
 
Check out this thread, it has the ES7s and quite a few other portables reviewed.

Guys, the ES7's are over the op's budget..

 

[king-dano]

Yup, he is right.

How about a HFI-580? It's 126 on amazon, if you like bass it should do it for you.

@MalVeauX Do they sound fine when listening from an iphone? I will be using my headphones with an iphone...

Heya,
 
Yep. Low impedance and good sensitivity. They isolate well. Good bass. And they're Ultrasone sexy.
 
Very best,

 

[king-dano]

Thank you man! I think I found the ones

Those are the same as the HFI-580 above btw king-dano, the only difference is the looks and the dj1 comes with a coiled cord. Good stuff either way!
