Looking for cheap portables

Closed or open? The Audio-Technica ES7 is a nice one if you don't mind closed. It's not the most rugged headphone though and the "mirror" finish mars easily.

I had them for awhile and liked them quite a bit, but I am looking for something a little more compact in size and more comfortable like a PX100. I replaced the ES7's with Denon 1001's for use at work.

I know nothing about that model.

There were three Sennheiser portables in Tyll's room at CanJam, two on the back table, and one on the left. Two sounded not bad at all, and I was wishing I'd written the model numbers down as I have friends that would like them. Does anyone know?

What's your definition of cheap, ronnielee54? Outside of the standard recommendations (KSC75, 35s, PX100s, etc ), I don't know what else is out there in the under $100 range.

Under $150 probably. Have had Porta-pros, have PX-100's and KSC75's at the moment. The reason I was asking about the Senns was because of the glowinf review on Headroom.

I won a pair of the HD238 at CanJam this year. Overall I like them a lot. They are definitely better than the PX100. Not by much but better, more refined. About $50 more refined if you must know.
