Well, many people have their own rules to choose headphones, especially the ones who want to listen to high-quality music. Nowadays, most of the music fans are not only looking for so-so headphones to listen to the songs, but seeking for the ones that can playback the original qualities of the music files, at least the high qualities of the music files. When it comes to choosing headphones, many people will get stuck with the hundreds of thousands of headphones they can find one the Internet or stores.

According to the usages of the headphones, and the types of music you are fond of, you may have multiple ways to choose your headphones. If you have no idea on choosing the one you like, and you are not going to spend too much on the headphones, you can check out the following post. It will introduce several budget headphones that you may want to take another look on Amazon or eBay.

1. Grado Labs SR80i

Grado Labs SR80i
I know, it’s an old model, may be not that old compared with KOSS PP. But I still want to recommend this one to you if you are always rock n’ roll. The headphones provide great, hi-fi quality when playback the rock music. That is not to say, this headphones are not good for playing the golden oldies. It is not a good idea if you want to listen to music with this pair of headphones in a crowded street because the retro design of this model will leak the noise into your ears. If you are enjoying your music at home, hell yeah, Grado SR80i will be a perfect choice under $100.

2. AKG K420

AKG K420
As a great portable model, AKG K420 is a pair of classic. The 420 provides a balanced music quality and Hi-Fi quality music, and it stands out on the performance of vocal sounds. When you are walking in streets, you will find the playback of this headphone is still excellent, so K420 is a good choice for carrying out. As mentioned, it provides a balanced sound quality, that is to say, it performs well at all sound frequencies, so when you are listening to a treble, you will find K420 plays the music so well.

3. Koss PortaPro

Koss PortaPro
This is another classic pair of headphones – because it is released in 1984 and is exactly the same after 20 years, both internally and externally. Koss PortaPro are retro-design portable headphones with bendable band, and you will find that your hair is easily to be stuck with the band, which means if you have long hair, you should be careful with this PortaPro. These headphones perform fantastic in bass, and it will give you a great auditory experience if you are a fan of rock music. The headphones are also budget with the $50 price, but some people may have an issue with its design.

4. Sennheiser PX200

Sennheiser PX200
Another pair of collapsible headphones, yeah, this pair is easy for carrying and putting in a small bag. The closed design of the headphones make them perfect for keeping the noise away when you are listening to music on the street, and it provides pretty good performance for all three audio frequencies, which makes it good for all kinds of music. The designs of these headphones are also attractive to certain fans, especially the white model.

5. ATH M30

ATH M30
These headphones come from Audio Technica and are budget headphones when comparing with the others from Audio Technica. This model provides large and soft covers which keeps the noise away. The bass quality of these headphones is also an advantage. But carrying out this pair of headphone is not a good idea because the headphones aren’t light and you will find it a burden when wearing it walking. But if you are enjoying the music at home or studio, these headphones are just great.

All in all, the headphones I recommended are all budget ones that are around $50, and provide high cost performances.
