The absolute best headphones I ever heard are the Sony MDRV6. They're monitors so they present the cleanest, most real sound possible. I think they are now marketed as 7506.

Stay away from Beats, unless all your friend likes is bass, because those (and so, so many others) are engineered to really accentuate bottom without providing the full range.

Otherwise, I second u/DevinBelow and think some grass would be perfect.

Are these designed/good for plugging into your phone or other devices?

Well, they come with the standard 3.5 jack, along with an adapter for 6.35, so they work perfectly well with phones & mp3 players.

Of course, good phones will also kind of expose the deficiency and limits of mobile devices, so one may hear poor quality sound but the flaw would be in the player/format and not the cans.
