Never had portable media before. I repair pc hardware all day. I destroy shirts frequently by gettign them stuck in the fans. So I would like to keep the headset below $50 for now just incase I have to replace them, I am a major bass head and the environment around me is that of a typical workplace. Not overly noisy, but there is people talkign frequently. If I can get anythign to soudn liek my DT 990s I would be super happy.

Your other option is a set of IEM's such as the IE80's which have great bass and if you put the wire under your shirt and feed through button lower down to your player...only way you'll destroy them is if you stick your entire ear into a fan...

IE80 is definitely out of the price range.Looking for something cheap (>$50) for the moment that does not need an external processor or amp.

Derp... just stumbled on this thread. Nice as it is tiered by price and I am very budget concious at the moment. Now to find which fits my needs.
