I really like the Sony MDR 7506 for <$100 that I believe you use for music
listening but it also has no mic.

Yes, but -- they are overkill for use in a ham station, mics are likely 
to be pro electrets, and thus complicated to hook up to a ham rig. And, 
BTW, until you spend pretty big bucks, they're not all that comfortable 
either! The Beyer and Sennheiser sets I use for listening to acoustic 
jazz are north of $300, and they don't have a mic.
