Well last year, I found the 3h's on a sweet deal, so I went and bought them. Though I was impressed by audio quality for these cheap headphones, the durability was not very good. So now this Christmas, I"m going to buy myself some nice new headphones. I'm having difficulty deciding, and help would be greatly appreciated.I most mostly listen to classical rock and electronica. I live in Canada and the max is 75 dollars. If you can provide a link that would be greatly appreciated

__________________Really good headphones. Don't let the low-ish price put you off. They are worth much more than that, IMO. Have them right now and I love em.

If you aren't going to be carrying them around and don't mind size then the Sennheiser HD555 is the way to go. If you need something more portable then You will want to avoid them.

I saw a good reviews in other forums here --> Headphones review maybe you can use it at reference as he reviewed just midpriced headphones.
Based on my experience I find the low priced Senn HD-205 is quite satisfying for me on my Auzentech Prelude. Bass is good, eventhough its not the clearest headphones I ever used, but for its price range it quite good IMO |

My decision is currently audio-technica ATH-M30s, because the ATH-AD700s are too expensive in Canada.

I have the JVC RX-900's, and love them so far. Just got them today off the egg. I have heard that they require a burn in process to really sound good, but they sound good now.
