Looking for a pair of over the head headphones. No Beats by Dre. Trying to stay under $100. Would prefer that they cancel out surrounding sounds. Any help would be great.

I have the older generation of these, great fucking headphones for the price.  I think I even got them for like $70.

These were recommended to me by someone on here, and I fucking LOVE them. Audio Technica is definitely your best bet for moderately priced good headphones. Do NOT buy Skullcandy if you want more than just a cool looking outter.

DUDE I was just going to post those. I'm rocking 'em right now. The ONLY complaint I have is they don't stay on my head, but they've been goin' strong for like 8 years now. But they look ugly as fuck.

I've been post whoring lately a little, and I just cringe when people recommend skullcandy.  I do appreciated good sound though, and I think others will too once they realize it's not completely out of reach to have a decent pair of cans.  I mean you have have the most epic amount of music but if you don't have something decent to hear it on it's worthless.

I have Grado SR80's on right now. They're fantastic, but they're open backed so they puke sound. They also don't cancel sound at all, not what you're looking for
