I'm sick of my old Beats earphones. My dad got them for me, and they've been okay, but I'm not a fan of the brand at all. While the design is good, the quality is just like Skullcandy.
I'm looking for something around $100-200, might go a tad higher but unlikely.
Any suggestions?
A mix of 75% quality and 25% style would be perfect for me

Do you like over ear headphones/ on ear headphones?

The only pair of headphones you should use are Astro A40s they are by far the best gaming headphones on the market they run about $200 and are totally worth it. I have tried so many different types and these are far more superior than any brand out there. The sound quality is unreal. you wont regret it. http://www.astrogaming.com/

The wired ones are remove able wireless aren't. You can also switch the mic on right or left side. It has a very nice amp that goes with it.
 
I recommend headphones over earphones, just because the quality is a 1000 times better, and i just enjoy headphones more.
Are you looking for something "big" or more a small model?

I'd say go for the beyerdynamic from that selection, but if your willing to shell out that amount of cash, you seriously cant beat sennheiser, and this is what you need...


http://www.sennheiserusa.com/PC360 (the 350 is a bit cheaper)

They got some boss reviews as well.
Also have you got a decent sound card? because if your paying that kind of money, it will be wasted if you have a shitty sound card.
 
Call me a fanboy, but Bose make quality products. I've been using the same pair of headphones for everything media related for 2 years now. They're pricey though.
 
I like me a good pair of skullcandys. I like the sound, but they are a bit fragile. Good thing that skullcandy do a good warranty

I don't think he ever said if the headphones he wants are going to be mainly for gaming or for on the go like using them on a college campus

With all seriousness though, I've been through multiple headsets and I have stopped buying new headsets since my wife gifted me Quick Comfort 15 last year. Never heard a better sound.

Lol, $1k for a headset, to think that people that aren't even in the music industry pay that is crazy.
I often see people with the QC 15 in airports/airplanes, I'll definitely check them out, thanks :)
