After breaking a rather cheap pair of Sony stereo headphones, I went on a search for decent and also good looking cans under a hundred bucks. I finally settled on the Marshall Major (on ear) headphones and just finished reviewing them. I ended up being quite pleased.

(Links so that we can see pictures of your more stylish choices are encouraged).
