No no no no no ignore all of these people in the comments not trying to be rude but I'm so telling you your best option will be to go to your local Best buy look at the headphones selection look at the skull candy headphones and then buy a pair for about $130 called the skull crusher 540 Honestly any of those Skullcandy over ear headphones in that price range are going to be absolutely perfect and will blow away so many more expensive models. No joke they are actually unbelievable headphones for the price

Take a look at the Crusher 540s, they were made with gym activities in mind and have a better clamping force compared to their predecessor (Evo). Also the earpads are fabric instead of pleather, so washing them won't have the coating flake off eventually.

I too started out with Hesh and since then I've owned a few pairs of Crusher Evos and just now updated to the 540s. I love Skullcandy.

Second this. I tried the 540s but returned them. I ended up getting Wicked Cushions for my anc2s and it sounds amazing

personally I'd buy crusher evo's over anc, but 540's are in stock then maybe consider those as well since they are the same price as evo's

Philips X2HR open backs. I use them as geberal use but there great studio headphones. PS. Theyre open backs, And as a consequence, they leak sound like a motherfucker. ny second option are either raycons or Skullcandy Skullcrushers i like the skullcrushers better because of the crazy bass and rhe bass slider adjustment.
