So I kinda want some nice over ear headphones for when I am working on the PC, listening to music and working in soundbooth.

I am looking at these:

Or any that look like this. I don't want to spend that much, im thinking 50-75$.

Please post something like this in the regular audio section.

Personally, I don't like low-end Sony stuff. Look at Grado and Sennheiser, I think they have some low-prices models that will sound better.

Well, I listen to rock, alt, and a little hip hop.

Mainly basic audio listening. And audio editing in soundbooth.

For sound editing and creation work, you would need studio monitors, which have a dead flat frequency response as you don't want the headphones to change the sound due to it's frequency response.

Only one I can think of in your budget:

Sony MDR-V6

http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-V6-Mo.../dp/B00001WRSJ

Very popular for sound editing all around the world, big studios and home ones.
