I know it is bit odd comparing In-Ear to Over-Ear headphones but I want something Good and Closed for traveling and rough usage. I have been using Sennheiser HD 206 for past 2yrs for daily travel and rough usage with Laptop etc. Now they stopped working. As I plan to purchase replacement headphones I am unable to decide what to pick.

Sennheiser HD 206 is good but I am trying to purchase something different. Obviously something better if possible.

SONY MDR-XB50/55 I think both are same with different naming scheme for different parts of the world. I have heard positive reviews about it but that being more BASSY than what HD206 was is it worth the purchase.

Is there anything better under INR2000($30 Range) which is better than the above listed headphones which are Closed back. If not which of the above is better.

Forget all those and look at Chi-Fi. USD30 can get you a great everyday set like the KZ ZS10 Pro or the KBear KB04. Cheers

They are expensive. They are in $50-60 range. Not gonna spend that for product which I know will have to replace after a year or two. And if it fails within warranty period it will b hard for me to claim it. Instead if I go for a know brand like SONY, Sennheiser, Audio-Technica and other well established brands I can at-least have a chance of claiming warranty.
