Looking for a wired set of headphones, wired, no mic, in the $150 range. Noise cancellation would be a plus, but not a huge one.
Thx guys for your help.

Same headphones just one is refurbished. New is $159 and refubs are $127. Those would be my next purchase if something were to happen to my current headphones. I have not heard these headphones myself, but reviews seem to love them. Hopefully the guys here that have owned a set will describe how well built they are and how they sound. Have fun headphone shopping!
I will add, I ended up going for the Philips SHP 9500S (link) which go for about $70,
They are $20 cheaper at newegg.

I heard this headphone needs a good amp because they are harder to drive.
I’m not generally a believer in letting speaker drivers break in, but I didn’t like the philips at first listen. I let them play the radio for a day or so unused and came back to them and I’ve liked them ever since. They hit way above their pricepoint!I will add, I ended up going for the Philips SHP 9500S (link) which go for about $70, but I didn't mention them earlier because you were looking for something around $150. That said, after 30+ video reviews on Youtube, it seemed pretty clear to me that most people liked the Philips better as a more neutral approach on highs/mids/lows, whereas the Audio Technica had weaker bass and the Sennheisers are, well twice the price. If you're not focused on a specific price tag, the Philips may be worth your consideration (this review is hard to argue with, Z Reviews is very well known). Mine arrive tomorrow
