What music stores in San Antonio have a good selection of headphones? (AKG, Grado, Sennheiser)

I'm looking to purchase a nice pair of headphones. Right now I have the Bose around ear headphones and I'm looking for an upgrade.

I ended up using Ebay for my BeyerDynamics, but I think I remember Guitar Center also had them + others.

What's your price range? What kind of music do you primarily listen to?

$200 dollars would probably be my tops for right now. I listen to a lot of jazz and older hip hop, hip hip that doesnt really have heavy bass, so I'm definitely not looking at Dr. Dre Beats.

Oh and I forgot to mention that I'm looking for around the ear headphones or on ear headphones, not in ear.

I have found THE best headphones for gym use. After going through multiple sets I have found the holy grail.

These are cheap. They stay in your ear GREAT. They sound great. 10000000000x better than more expensive ($50 range) Sony/Nike/SkullCandy/etc. They hold up very well.

I own a pair of Sennheiser HD218 which I really like, nice clean sound. I think best buy has 'em so you can demo them.

I also have Sennheiser PX100, however they leak sound but sound very good.
