Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
I do agree fishpatrol, some lower end brands do offer a budget minded consumer great options. But most of the time the ago old saying of you pay for what you get still aplies. Take this quick example of the Norcent I mentioned in the article and the cheapest Samsung in the same size range.
You will find after the link is a comparison between the two. The Samsung offers consumers a comb filter for better RF signals, stereo sound, VGA input, and a base that can double as a wall mount. All this for $143 more. Plus, I could put up a good argument that the Samsung warrenty would be better supported although they both offer a 1 year on parts and labor.

Sure, there are some great buys out there if someone is just a basic panel. But if you do want the options you mentioned like more inputs, better picture through a more effecient image processor, and higher quality control. Buy the name brands.
