I use a pair of Incase headphones in the $90 range that are very comfortable. The high mids are too hyped but transients come through nice because of it. The coloration makes spatial balancing (reverbs, delays) a breeze too. I can't really mix with them though. They're more for sound design and composition or tracking.

For real critical listening I use the Sennheiser HD 650's but they're over your max price bracket. Still the best cans money can buy within reason.

I use either the Sennheiser HD280 (~$90), or the Shure SRH440(~$100). The Shure's seem a little livelier, but each are decent sounding, well built cans for the money.
