Sup Basilers. Could you recommend me good headphones for around 50-100 bucks? It should have a nice overall sound and it should not be made of crappy plastic parts. (No Skullcandy headphones. They suck.) Thanks in advance, Coffeprince :P

50 bucks? You're gonna have to find some in the dumpster for that price.

There's a new headphone company. Well, I shouldn't say new, but they only have two products on the line right now. nox-audio.com. That's the site. The Nox Specialists are headsets, and the Nox Scout are the ear buds. Personally I like headsets a lot better. Check it out ^^ Otherwise...You could try Razer, all of their stuff is really good/cool. Edit: The Scouts aren't out on the production line just yet apparently. But the Specialists are preferable anyway. They aren't cheap, nor are they super expensive. They're worth the money spent.

Beats by Dr. Dre are pretty flashy and they sound quality is pretty nice, but damn they're expensive.

Sony sells some decent headphones at that price. I use these headphones . They are marketed as "noise cancelling", but they barely cancel out any noise. In any case, these headphones have lasted me about a year, and they are still running as if I just bought them. I also had other sony headphones in the past, and they literally lasted me 8, or 9 years. As far as skullcandy goes, I agree with you. I bought skullcrushers, and they didn't ast 3 months before they crapped out. I also got smoking buds, but those only lasted a month as well. I sent in my skullcrushers for repair 2 years ago, and I have yet to get them back. Anyway, at your price range, I think Sony headphones are your best bet. Trust me, they are underrated, but they last a really long time.

Steelseries has some pretty top of the line stuff for relatively cheap, considering they are usually stocked on other sites at a cheaper value: http://steelseries.com/products/audio
