Good Set of Headphones?

I need a good set of headphones for my MicroKorg. I was think some Sennheiser's or Sony's, but I'm not expert. No specific needs, just some good, clean headphones with little mic bleed and ambient leak. Any models you guys would suggest? Thanks :D

nothing below $40 and preferably above $75

I use a pair of Audio Technica ATH M50's. I honestly cant say enough good things about them. Minimal bleed, comfortable, great build quality and they sound great too.

I paid £100 for mine so although they arent cheap, they will sound great with you Microkorg!

I have Sennheiser HD 25-1 II, they cost about 200$, but are worth every cent, have had 'em for three years now. Only complain is about the cord, but it is replaceable.

Sennheiser HD 280 Pro are also good closed cans, cheaper than HD 25-1, about 80$

No expert, but my ears are pretty fond of the Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones. Flat response for accuracy, great fit, a little heavy (not a DJ headphone), but that helps isolate sound (like sipa says, closed cans). Cord on the HD 280 Pro has been solid, but I have only owned them for a year and a half or so.
