I had a nice pair of Sony headphones for a good ten years. I don't know what model they were, but they sounded excellent and served me well. My dad got them for me and spent around $100. Now, I'm rocking a $40 pair of JVC HA-S600 which do the trick just fine. Not nearly as full a sound as the Sony, but for the price I'm pretty happy.

I recommend going to a best buy somewhere and checking out the Beats headphones. They are bass heavy and sound really muddy if you ask me. They are not good headphones.
