I usually don't spend over $100 on a pair of headphones. Ranked in order of sound quality and price.

1. Bose TriPort In-Ear "rev. 2" ( Bose headphones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia )
Very good bass, might be lagging in the high's but some tuning on the sony nwz-s615F does the trick. Best comfort I've ever felt, could listen for hours and my ears won't hurt. Not to mention customer support is excellent also.
2. Sony MDR-EX71
First pair of headphones I got for over $30, relatively expensive according to me at that time. Fairly good comfort for canal's, great bass (requires some tuning) but later something got screwed up in left side of earpiece so it's basically broken.
3. Sony MDR-Q22 & 23
I just needed some headphones that didn't hurt my ears so bad compared to the stock earbuds that came with DAP's and CD players. Bought these back a long time ago when I wasn't so crazy about clear and good sounding bass.

I'm not quite an audiophile yet, but i'm getting there though

1. Bose IE's (v1)
2. Creative ep630's

i'll note that the margin is slim and I would say they are ~ equal if you use the bose tips. I use ep630 tips with the bose and they deliver the bass better.

1. AKG K701
2. Sennheiser HD 650

The AKG wins out on account of its more natural, faster and transparent sound. The HD 650 by comparison is bass heavy and darkish in coloration.

In terms of sound quality alone, neglecting cost or practicalities:

• AKG k701, by MILES!!
  
• Sennheiser HD650 - nice for some older recordings, or for shrill recordings (eg. many violin concertos)
• Sure SE210
• AKG k271
• Grado SR 60
• Sennheiser HD555 (my first, but my god they distort, albiet with a sweet buttery tickling sound)
• Various free crappy headphones I've kept for the giggle factor...
