Need help chosing

[Little Bear]

  I listen to Rap/EDM, Game, want(don't need) 2 way noise isolation, and no mic. I would like to be able to listen to them with my phone. Durability is a must. 

Which best fits my needs:

I really like my AKG K77s, but they are considerably cheaper than the ones you where looking at.

What do you mean with "2 way noise isolation"? 

 

The AKG K612s are an open pair of headphones, so they'll isolate diddly squad.While I would recommend them, they aren't really suitable for public use due to their sound leakage. 

I never was a fan of the Urbanite series, but they do sound reasonable. 

 

What exactly is your budget?

No noise can enter or leave the headphones. Roughly 120 dollars.

In that case the AKGs are off the table.

 

My recommendation would be to look into the Sony MDR-7506 or the Sennheiser HD 280 Pros. Both have a slightly V.-shaped sound signature that should suite rap and EDM quite nicely.

Those ear cups don't look exactly comfy...

I have never had a problem with either, but results may vary. 

As with everything, I would recommend trying them on before buying.

Have you ever tried the urbanite xl, because that's the one I was wondering the most about?

I have, and as said, I don't parricularly care for the way they sound. 

Now, they don't sound bad (especially, for the price you linked), but they just aren't for me. 

But they are comfortable.

I actually found another one for $80.
