Jerry,

Based on the suggestions of this group I bought the Audio Technica
ATH-M40FS which I am very pleased with.  As was said at the time -
they are not top of the range, but good.  Only 1/4" jack (no 3.5mm).
There is an extended bass version the ATH-D40FS, but I decided on the
flat response version.

I am not sure of the price in the USA, but I would think less than $100.

Beware of curly cords - I bought some with a curly cord and had to
return them as I tied myself in knots drumming with them.  They were
Sennheiser HD280 which sounded very good but also squashed my head
somewhat (6N pressure rather than around 2N for the ATH ones I think).
This can be a problem if you wear spectacles.

The AKG K271 were recommended to me but were a bit expensive.

Keith.
