Best Stylish Headphones? =P.

Hello,
I'm looking for some QUALITY headphones under 40GBP, looking to spend as little as possible (I'm still saving up for some new speakers :P).

I will be wearing these out, so I wouldn't like chunky traditional headphones, more like lightweight, or behind the neck or something like that, I also use them for jogging and at the gym.

I love my music, and the bass =P.

Any reccomendations would be nice!

Lav.

Sennheiser PX100.Really light on the head,good looks and great SQ and plenty of BASS.You could also try Koss Porta Pros or my own favourite and an absolute bargin are Koss KSC75,they are very close to the Grado sound for less than £20,may not be enough bass for you.By way the KSC75 are clip ons so i dont know if they would suit jogging.

Senn PX100 and 200 are fine. If size isnt an issue go a bit more for HD215 (£49) or the lesser HD205 (£39)

Size is an issue He doesn't want chunky ... Another vote for 100 and 200 from Sennheiser or the Audio Technica 7's with ear clips.
