Need recommendations ASAP, want to buy before going on study trip

Rigs - Laptop / Tablet / SmartPhone
Usage - Music/Movies
File format - Unspecific
Genre - All genres, mainly pop, hip hop, classical
Types - On ear headphones preferably but over ear still acceptable
Others - Want one with mic and both one jack. I use Lenovo G580 it only has one jack slot.
Price - Max RM150. I'm only student so spending above RM100 is already a budget stretch but if have to go above not more than 150.

I think Hd669 ( superlux ) is quite handy for most...except classical... Or hd668b ( superlux ) as well...but I think hd669 performs better with pop .. Or hip hop songs...

So new edit for my post no #312. Mods feel free to take that one down.

Need recommendations ASAP, want to buy before going on study trip

Rigs - Laptop / Tablet / SmartPhone

Usage - Music/Movies

File format - Unspecific

Genre - All genres, mainly pop rock, hip hop, classical

Types - On ear headphones preferably but over ear still acceptable

Others - Want one with mic and one jack for both. I use Lenovo G580 it only has one jack slot. Besides with mic can use for phone too. If there is wireless option for my budget even better. Not too big tho as I don't want it to stuff my bag.

Price - Max RM150. I'm only student so spending above RM100 is already a budget stretch but if have to go above not more than 150.

I'm considering XBA-10 and Philips SHE9850. Not sure what's the big deal with 'balanced armature' though. Which one would you recommend for a wide range of music? Or are there something better at that sub RM250 range?

Your rig: Desktop (with no sound card)
- What type of usage: Gaming (FPS game like CS), music, video editting.
- File format used in your source: mp3, wma
- Genre of music you listen to: classical, instrumental, pop, rock
- Headphone/ earphone type: Cover whole ear type
- Other requirement: mic, volume control, Not sure about Channel, still considering to get sound card in future or not.

Budget: RM 150- RM300
Wishlist: Steelseries Siberia V2 (RM300)

Can suggest other alternatives that better than Steelseries Siberia V2 for me please? I am seeking for durable one.

Extra Questions: Audio jack headphone is better than the USB right?

Thanks for the help!

you can easily pull off the pad, it wraps around the edges of the can, then put on the new one, they will look seamless once put on

update from previous post;

ok i plan to buy FIIO E07K ANDES AMPLIFIER, currently owned a standard headphone,

atm i'm considering my options

1) should i upgrade my headphone or not.. if i should, what model?

2) don't buy the amp, just buy more powerful headphone

currently in limited budget, below rm400 (for headphone)
most of the time i listen to old rock music (metallica, the beatle) and sometimes instrumental and acoustic performance (guitar sound, vocal quality)

plan to use it with my phone and sometimes pc, prefer noise isolating and comfortable headphone
