The Sony MDR-V6 headphones are great for their cheap studio monitoring capabilities. There's a reason they've been around so long: because they work well. They have a flat frequency response, minor distortion, and are durable. Amazon has a great deal on this pair for $54 with free shipping. You can also get $2 in MP3 credit with a purchase.
