Best headphones under $100 for friend?

Bluethulhu

My friend just sent me a message saying he wants some new headphones. Quality is not a top priority, he isn't much of an audiophile. He sent me a link and was very much considering http://amzn.to/14HvPwj from the reviews. Comfort is the top priority, but audio quality/durability are also important, he plans to keep these for years. Budget is under or around $100. If you want to ask any more questions, I have him available on Steam chat.

thanks, didn't know it was on sale, probably the best headphones for the price (although it's rather bassy :/)

 

Not really on sale, they've been hovering around this price for some time.

 

Audiotechnica ATH-AD700 is the generic copy/paste recommendation. Their "wing" system is supposedly really comfy. A certain forum member 'round here has had his for over 5 years.
