I don't know much about headphones, but I'm looking to upgrade. So far I've only used skullcandy headphones, which I hear have terrible sound quality, though they sound ok to me. So I'm looking for something a little bit better with better durability. My budget is $100-150.
I'll be using these for gaming and music. I don't really care if they're portable or not.
Question about
which headphones should i get?

Though I haven't used them, I've heard great things about these:
gdgt.com/grado/sr60i/
gdgt.com/akg/k-240/studio/
They are currently on amazon.com going for $79 and $99 respectively, lower than your price range. Good luck!

What kind of headphone are you looking for:
A full-size open headphone to consider is the Audio Technica ATH-AD700 (about $90). I've spent an evening with them, and they did well with both gaming (used with an Astro MixAmp) and music. A popular closed design in this price range is the Shure SRH440 (about $75).
Hope that helps.
- In-ear monitors (the best ones use custom molds of your ear canal)
- ear buds
- on ear headphone (cup rests at least partially on the ear)
- circumaural (cups completely cover the ears)
