If you are looking for sound quality under $100, I recommend in-ear headphones from sennheiser or maybe AKG. You however are looking for over ear headphones and frankly you don't really get great quality from such headphones under $100, and don't get me started on Skullcandy as they are the most useless piece of cr@p I have ever seen in terms of sound. I would recommend getting a pair of Sennheiser HD555's and in the future maybe you can upgrade them like this guy here.

apparently you can modify these headphones and get GREAT sound out of them, very much bang for your buck :)

2	Sennheiser MOST DEFINITELY. Bose you'll wanna spend more so they're the only choice. Or sony MDR700s. answered Jun 05 '10 at 16:55 Simon 621●11●14●24

Definitely skull candy, they don't actually cost an outrages amount, the sound quality is superb, and they have some great designs and colors!

Not true at all. Their buds have OK quality. All their full cans are USELESS. They sound like 1960s transistor radios. No tonal balance whatsoever.

0	I prefer the Bose QuietComfort set, but that comes with around a ~$300 price tag, if I remember correctly. Alternatively, the Apple earbuds work just fine for me. answered Jun 05 '10 at 17:37 simplydrew 1.1k●2●7●22
