Hello all
 
I have been looking for a pair of over ear portable headphones for 80% movies 20% music, price range is around $400. For my lunch hour at work I watch movies or listen to music, my environment is a little noisy so sound isolating would help, other uses would be late night movie watching at home (i have a denon avr1911 receiver) comfort is important as i will be using the headphones for an hour a day at work and possibly again for a movie at night, basically everyday use. any recommendations would be welcome, through information i have been reading throughout this site, some considerations have been B&W P7 and bose qc25

The B&W P7 are quite nice. A bit of bass emphasis that would be nice for movies.

With Bose, part of the price is the active noise cancellation technology. I haven't heard them, but I'd be surprised if they are as good as the P7s.
