Looking for Headphones...

I'm looking for something that is sharp and clear, not sounding muffled and blended(not necessarily saying "cheap"). I don't really want to go for monitor headphones because all I'm doing is listening to music or general audio such as youtube. I still want them to have some bass, and I also don't want it to sound harsh like most monitor headphones. I think AKG might have the sound signature I'm looking for but I'm still not sure. My budget is between $100-200.

Are you looking for over ear, on ear, in ear, or earbuds?
