Recommendations for headphones under $100

[greendy123]

I need some headphones now for listening to music and watching videos on my computer because my brother took back his computer speakers from me. I plan to run the headphones from the 1/4" jack output from my toneport. I not sure if sound quality will be concern if I get 1/8" converter if the headphone plug is in a 1/4" input.

My main concern is that they will work for music, videos, basically they are going to replace my speakers, and produces decent sound from the toneport when playing guitar. It must also be comfortable while wearing glasses. I not sure where to even start looking because I never look into headphone stuff. I'm guessing studio monitor headphones are what I'm looking for.

Glasses will pose a problem - all good quality, isolating headphones rely on a seal around your ear, and the glasses will prevent this.

I'd look into a set of Sennheiser PX100's, though - not full sealed, but they sound amazing, will work fine with your glasses, and aren't ginormous.

Maybe some high quality in-ears? There should be no porblems with glasses and from what i've hear about the shure headphones they have fantastic sound and isolation.

I'm trying to stay way from ear buds and in ears cause they break much easier than headphones. I'll check out the Sennheiser PX100 headphones.

love my px100's...only thing is I need to get off my lazy butt and get an extention cable for them as the cord is only about 3ft long. I use a 1/4'' to 1/8'' adaptor to plug directly into my pod xtl.....sounds fine to me.

Thanks for the help. Seems the grados sr60s are what I'm looking for, light and sturdy with bigger cable. Reviews for them are great, I'll probably order them from amazon tonight.
