New Daily Music Drivers

So I am currently looking for some new headphones (Not headsets) that I can use for music while I am at school.

 

My budget is $100 or less, I would go with a higher budget but I'm only at school two days a week so I don't need the highest quality in the world.

 

 

I would like closed back headphones seeing as I listen to music at a high volume in the middle of some of my classes and I do not want to disturb my fellow classmates.

 

They MUST be closed back and they MUST be over the ear (duh).

 

 

 

As always, thank you for all your help :D

G430/G320 both over-ear, IMO sounds cool (and looks dope)

Those are headsets... I don't want headsets, the audio quality is generally worse for more money... I just want headphones AKA no mic.

What headphones does that mean though? 

 

You're kidding, right?

Depending on how loud op listens, it may help to have some in ears, since they are less likely to allow sound out (in my experience, anyway...) but the takstar pro80 is one that's worth a look, I suppose.

Tbh, I would get the Bose Qc25. I know they are over the budget, BUT:

 

They sound better  :P

Will probably last longer

They will certainly provide you the quietest environment in public.    

You will probably be more happy in the long run

 

(Sorry for forcing my opinion here, but the way I see it it's far better to buy quality the first time around ;) ) 

 

Good luck searching  ^_^
