Pretty annoying.

I'm looking to spend no more than around $100. Anyone have any good suggestions? I loved these pair of sennheiser's but think I want to go with another model this time around. I'm not opposed at all to another pair of sennheiser's either. What do ya'll think?
I got these for 60 bucks and really like them.

These headphones >>> than any over ear headphone in the same price range. They own the Beats, I listened to both of them at the same time and preferred my M50's over the Beats.

I got these over Christmas and I've never been more satisfied with a purchase. They sound fantastic, are very comfortable and reasonably priced (I think 75 bucks). Would suggest for everyone.

I love my HD 448s. Well worth the $50 I paid for them.

shure se215s are the best $100 headphones you can get.

Just like Mike, I'm very pleased with these. Great sound and they got even warmer with a little bit of time.

Re: Looking to get a good pair of headphones
I got a pair of Sennheiser HD 555's a few months back and it blows my mind how good they are. I hear new things when I listen to songs I've heard a hundred times with them, it's remarkable

Re: Looking to get a good pair of headphones
how is the comfortability with the m50's? I heard they can be somewhat uncomfortable.

I really dig the Bose over or around-ears, but I just picked up a pair of iHome studio headphones that are actually pretty kick ass. Can't beat them for $30.

Everyone here mentioned the Sennheiser and that's what I ended up getting.

I was very impressed by the QC-15's when I tested them out. I might get them for Christmas, so I'll report back after regular use.

Tell whoever's buying them for you to spend 1/3 as much and get you a much better pair of headphones.
