Looking to buy a new pair of headphones as my Monoprice pair broke pretty quickly due to the poor build quality. Looking to spend around $50.
Priorities:
-Build quality
-Comfort
-Sound
-Value

Theres a lot of headphones on Amazon for sale. Already considering one of the SuperLux pairs:

I'd go with open cans if you have a somewhat quiet environment. You hear everything.

I use the SR850s and they are amazing headphones, they leak sound pretty badly, but have excellent audio and do not suffer from lack of bass. I use them for a lot of eXtv work and they are really solid general use headphones that are comfortable to wear and have pretty good sound quality, especially for the price point.

Also, I broke them on my i46 trip and Samson is replacing them no questions asked. Good company and good support.
