hello,

So i'm having a computer built for me in the next few weeks and intend to eventually use it for recording music. I'm looking for some nice headphones that i could use for this, along with just listening to music. I don't want beats at all, and don't want to spend a ridiculous amount of money either. What are some suggestions for a quality pair of headphones that don't cost... more than 150$ (give or take a few bucks of course). Does anybody know anything about Audiotechnica or Klipsch?

Iso your opinions, thanks!!

Dude, it's worth investing in a good set - the value and sound is excellent. I recommend shure studio headphones. Can get them for between 70-100£ and they are without a doubt the best budget recording headphones. Paired up with a shure mic you are laughing mate
