Headphone Suggestions

[malaki]

I'm in the market to get a headphone upgrade:

I mainly listen to electronic/rock music with some artists being Linkin Park, I am Legion, Ghost Town, Paramore, and others

I have $200-ish budget

 

I've identified 3 possible options:

AudioTechnica QuietPro ATH-ANC70

Denon AH-D1100

Sennheiser HD 518

 

The headphones have to put up with a great deal of abuse as well (Mostly involving being used outside, and being thrown somewhat)

Thanks

ATH M40x?

Shure 440/840?

Beyerdynamic DT770?

Grado SR125e?

Sennhieser Momentum? 

 

Do you want any specific feature set/type or do you just want anything that sounds good?

Since you listed a closed noise cancelling headphone along with an open sounding pair of headphones.

You don't want to use the HD518 outside because they are open backed. You want closed backed headphones.

 

I would recommend the Custom One Pros and DT770.

Beyerdynamic DT770 or Shure 440 with 840 pads for closed and AKG K612 or Beyerdynamic DT990 for open would be my picks. 

 

Edit: You're in Canada. The Shures are your best bet because they are the same price in Canada as the US last time I checked.
