I'm new to headphones. I was recommended a pair of these Sennheiser's, which to my knowledge is a good brand. This guy knows a lot about headphones and it fit my price range of about $20-$40ish.
 
I want to know if they are good for the money or if there's a better pair out there for the money?
 
PLEASE Respond

I own them and they are decent not considering the price but good when you consider it's only ~$30

HD238's: boomy, bloated, overloud bass IMO.  I much prefer the older PX-100's.  Not the PX-100 II, which I also think have way too much bass.  Old PX-100 is the winner here IMO.
 
The 238's also have fake leather ear pads which made me sweat a lot. PX-100's more comfortable.

Personally I love them and don't find them boomy at all, so to each his own I guess. For that price they are a true bargain. Another great one at that general price is the DT 235.
