I'll be honest, I'm not an audiophile. I just want something good and super sturdy. The headphones I have now (JVC HA-RX700) are great, and I love them a lot, but recently the left ear broke off of the strap, so I had to tape it back together (it still works). The problem is that now the headphones don't sit evenly on my head/ears, so while yes I can hear out of both ears just fine, the left ear sounds sliiiightly softer now, and since the left ear doesn't fully cover my ear anymore, the sound is bothering my ears.
So, super sturdy headphones, good quality, under or around $100. Any suggestions?

These headphones have lasted me about 8 months now, they are surprisingly durable for a £20 pair. They have survived several bad tempered removals from my head and subsequent launches at furniture. The earphones fold inwards so it can travel flat inside of a rucksack which is a really useful feature in my opinion. They sound great and have a simple sound/mute mic array on the left ear. They also have really large earpieces so it fits snugly around your ear (Give or take on the Lobe) so if you have trouble with smaller ones crushing your ears over long periods of time these will work great. I have them on pretty much all the time I am awake, even if I'm not listening to anything and they are comfortable as hell :D It should be about $30-40 at a guess, so you'll save a lot of money to get a really good pair (If you aren't an audiophile like me that is)
