I think both of those are really good, I'd even be inclined to go with the cheaper option so that you could also consider a couple of other things I'd personally recommend...
Not sure what harware you've got in the pc/laptop, but I also suggest you consider a good sound card - that makes a huge difference for sound, and they're not massively expensive either. There are USB sound cards that hugely improve listening, even if you get a fairly simple one (I had a creative X-Fi with my laptop when I used it for music, which isn't the most brilliant sound card but was miles above on-board, and that was less than $60). I'm not actually a huge expert in this, and I plan to upgrade my own sometime soon, but I can vouch for it being a very good idea.
Another thing I got was a simple headphone amp. That's really optional, and mine is actually home-made (not by me), but you can find lots of cool options for these for $20-30. They don't make a massive difference, but especially on so-so hardware they really do help.
