I need headphones that only an audiophile would love. I practically LIVE in my headphones and almost never take em off. I also dont wanna spend heaping tons of money on em tho ;w; maybe a budget of like- 100-200 I guess... I dunno what do yall recommend?

You said audiophile and then said $100-$200, those don't match. That said both my autistic son and I use Sony WH-1000xm4, they run $250 new but you can get them on ebay for under $200 and they are pretty great. When I'm able to sit still I have a set of open back planar ribbon cans run through a USB DAC or a desktop amp but when I'm on the move I use the Sonys. The noise canceling is good enough that I can use them on my lawnmower or tractor comfortably.

I also have the XM4s, they work great. Don't bother getting the more expensive XM5s...hardly any noticeable difference from what I could tell.
