Watch the weekend online live coverage of the Los Angeles CanJam on the Head-fi website and you will get some ideas from the headphone geeks on that site.
Best sounding closed back headphones under 100$
The headphones need be closed back type in order not to upset my wife at night.
My sound taste is as follows:
1. I want no harshness and edgy mid (I am a class A amp guy).
2. I believe that most of the music lies in the mid range.
3. I like clarity and sweetness.
4. Impressive bass is nice but not first priority.
