I'm using the AudioTechinca ATH-M40fs. They sound great when monitoring a recording through them. What I enjoy most is that the low end isn't lost. I can play along to a full drum kit and acoustic guitar, and still hear nice definition in a bass guitar that I'm playing. I also own a pair of Sony phones, and the bass is null plus they have a very exagerated upper midrange, which drives me nutz!

I think i paid about $75 for the M40fs. I really enjoy them!

I also have a pair of the M40fs's and you need to get replacement earpads and headpads, they DO NOT LAST.
luckily AT sells then on their web site.

I still say the Sennheiser's are the best for tracking
