Oh hi! What happened to your DHP's? And here, get these and don't look back: http://cgi.ebay.com/Sennheiser-HD428-DJ-Stereo-Headphones-/230653681531?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35b407df7b#ht_4307wt_1139
 
Or you can get a pair of Philips The Stretch headphones on Amazon for $25.

The Sennheiser 203's have good clarity and decent bass (depending on your preference)... a good bet.  i'd also suggest the audio technica ath-m30 as it definitely has a surprising bass depth and clarity.  i think you'll be happy either way.

AWESOME find!!!  There is no way there can be a better deal than this, right?!  Please give opinions people!  EDIT:  Oh, I just saw that they are refurbished..I am really iffy about that kind of stuff.. Isn't it hit or miss?  What if they stop working in, say, 2 months?  =/  Although, it is really really tempting..
 
As far as the DHP's..well, to be honest, they still work GREAT..except for the fact that due to the general wear and tear, the cheap plastic is starting to unscrew/come apart... It's been 1 year..not bad for a pair of $22 hp's..

I'm also iffy about the 203's based on the mixed opinions I have seen.  It seems as though in this price range people have mostly said there are better choices?  That was the result of asking around last time I used this thread heheheh.   I'm looking at these refurbished senn hd428's and the other audio-technica i mentioned before..  http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATHT22-Dynamic-Stereo-Headphones/dp/B000BNY0W0/ref=sr_1_1?s=aht&ie=UTF8&qid=1312997003&sr=1-1

It's pretty unlikely, but I'd be willing to fix it if it breaks within a year.

Seriously?  Ahhh I wish I didn't have so much trouble just placing that trust in you (the fact that you would return them back etc..) 

Okay, well, I know you helped me last time.. So I just bought them!  
 
FINAL VERDICT:  The refurbished HD428's on eBay.
 
Thanks once again!  Especially to Ishcabible!

Haha I wouldn't steal them. I have 15 other headphones to keep me company. 

 
If you feel there isn't enough bass, I can probably help you with that.

Did no one come in to recommend Superlux in time?

I would have recommended them, but they're closer to $40...

Yup, and I didn't have that much on my gift card haha!    I really hope I am happy with the HD428's I just got.. I mean, I know if they don't break, then I just got an awesome deal.  If I'm not happy with the bass I will definitely PM you for help with that!    Thanks so much Ishcabible
 

 

[kingoftown1]

aw, I didn't know how restricted you were...I just picked up the 681 for $35

 

[trancetunes]

To be honest, I might spoil myself and grab those as soon as I get my next check hahaha
 
**** you head-fi'ers..getting me all into headphones now!

Hey everyone,
 
I need another pair of under $40 USD headphones.  I want a lot of bass, and then consideration for clear highs.  I want to feel the bass, and not have it be so shallow and plain like the HD 428's I last bought.  The Maxell DHP II had great sound for the price, and I miss that, but they are too expensive now.  Any suggestions for my guidelines?
 
Thanks!

Ive heard that the sennheiser 205 is a good over the ear headphone, its good for a beginner like you, and the sound is good for the price. Retais in places for £20

i am a beginner, but even as a beginner i know that there are much more full sounding headphones for the same price range.  i'd get the koss portapro over senn 205's =/

sennheiser 205 and others just don't seem to have RICH and FULL bass.  my maxell dhp-ii's had that, but they are over $50 now. 
 
 
 
Does anyone else have any other suggestions?  I've been considering Audio-Technica...Does anyone know if they have awesome bass and nice highs for the price range?
 
Also, what about Superlux 681?
