I'm considering the K391 http://us.akg.com/akg-product-detail-us/k391nc.html to the  K490's http://us.akg.com/akg-product-detail-us/k-490-nc.html  and leabing towards the K391 because the K490's are on ear and will likely leak sound.  I have seen great reviews for sound quality and NC.  Reports are that they are both better than the Bose.   Any opinoins on which to go with for loooooong flights to Asia?

I just got a pair after doing some research. I was tied between the Sony NDR300C and the XBANC85D. The first have good reviews but the noise cancelling feature is on all the time. I sometimes want to hear just the noise cancelling with no music or turn the NC off so that was a deterent for me. The other ones are cool but from reviews they sound awful.   The AKG has near no reviews but the few from user are OK.
Once it gets to me I will compare them to my current Sony nc11 and post.
