Looking for recommendations for a portable headphone that can used in a coffee shop, office, etc, and still deliver great sound. Need big ear cups, too...I have big ears. I've tried the Sennheiser Momentum 2s and OPPO PM3s, but ear cups were too small for over 2 hours of listening. Now researching Bose QC35 and Sennheiser PXC550 because of their cup size. Help!

PXC550 is more expensive than the Bose but is much classier, has better features, better build quality, better sound quality and accepts a wire as well, and is more comfortable!

You should check out a SoundMAGIC HP151 and see what you think. Mine fit just fine over me gigantic ears and they sound really terrific. Maybe read about it and see what you think. It could potentially work for you.

B&W P7 wireless are excellent, even if you only use them in wired mode :D

I found the ear cups to be a bit tight-fitting. Although they do look wonderful, and the build quality is excellent.
