If someone is NOT going to use a headphone amp, or an add on sound card in their pc, how high up the chain of headphone quality can they go and still improve their listening experience? This also applies to those using mp3 players, or phones or tablets. Let's assume the recordings themselves are average cd quality.
I know quite a number of sub $60 headphones will do nicely with this type of setup. I own three right now, and if you increase the ceiling on price to $150, I've heard quite a few more that work well, and a few that don't.
What would be your recommendation for great sound, however you want to define that, with these two restraints? $150 hard price ceiling and no amp.
