Headphones.

I just wanted to ask the question, what in your opinion are the best headphones.

Id like to know because id like to purchase new headphones for listening to music on my ipod, a mic and controls on the headphones would be cool, but not necessary, in ear, noise canceling, or anything else would be fine, as long as it has good sound quality, and by good i mean not crappy, like the normal ipod headphones are, somthing that has good base, and just an overall good sound, and most importantly, id really like it to not cost an arm and a leg, lets shoot for under 50?

Basically just recently, i realized how crappy, the standard headphones that come with ipods are, i also find it funny that they cost 30 dollars to replace, so today, realizing that they really do suck i went to the store, and got a pair of sony MDR-ED12LP headphones, for 12.50, and they are ten times better, then the ipod headphones, holy crap, the base is nice, the sound clarity and quality is alot better, and you dont have to turn the volume all the way up to hear sound, (which also means now i will be able to hear all of you guys on ts, (i use seperate mic and headphones))

So basically im just looking to see if anybody else has some headphones they would strongly recommend,

Thanks guys!

Thanks mal!

Also to clarigy, the point isnt to have a microphone to play fleetops with, just an optionl microphone with controls to help control my ipodtouch/nano

headphones are for pc and laptops as far as im concerned, they are not good for wearing in public, you look like a moose and have no where to put them when your done with them because they are too big.
