Looking to get some relatively small, but good quality headphones. I'm willing to spend up to $150. Any suggestions?

I have these (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00005S8KM/qid=1115435697/sr=8-6/ref=pd_csp_6/102-0881710-7706513?v=glance&s=pc&n=507846) and they are great.
These (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00009MK3T/qid=1115435736/sr=52-1/ref=sr_52_1_etk-accessories/102-0881710-7706513?v=glance&s=electronics&n=281407) are also very good.
I have Shure e2c's. I got them for ~$100. They are earbuds and they block out pretty much 100% of ambient noise (including NYC subways).

Yes, these look like a winner.
That can make you deaf.
Be careful on how high you set the volume.

The Sennheiser HD600 are generally regarded by audiophiles to be the best consumer phones available sub $2000. They retail for 600 or so, but you can find them for ~$250 online if you look hard. If you are serious about headphones get a separate headphone amp for these babies as well. You won't be disappointed. If you want to learn more about headphones, check out www.headfi.org (http://www.headfi.org)
edit: i didn't actually read your post, lol. these things aren't small... but shures and etymotics are the best small headphones.

Uhm... Listening to music really loud using in-ear headphones.
Good thing Dead is here to provide us with such valuable insight.
I knew a few young people who have hearing loss because of it.
I just wanted to point it out.
If you don't realize that listening to music with the volume to the point that it causes ringing and/or pain is bad, then you deserve the hearing loss.
