I'm using the ATH-M50
Its good for the price I paid - $85usd w/o shipping.

However in our climate, your ears really sweat inside with prolong usage.
The bass is a harsh and unnatural which can be a deal breaker to some.

I'm thinking of changing the earpad to Beyer's DT250 from what I read from headfi.
Should help with the usage of velor pads for comfort and heat.

If you like a more balance sound the SRH840 offers that but it needs power to make it sound good.
