Hi!
 
Need a set of portable-ish earbuds/headphones that offer...

  • Comfort (for hours on end)
  • Noise isolation / cancellation
  • Portability (in a case in a backpack)
  • Sound quality

I plan on using them with my smartphone in places like the bus and at coffee shops. Currently have the quietcontrol 30s from bose but I'm returning it soon because the noise cancellation is not as good as I imagined, but my budget is around that much. I have an above average sized head.

Currently considering...

Quietcomfort 35 - $350 - comfortable, wireless, portable. but sound quality?

Oppo PM 3 - $400 - kind of expensive, is it worth the extra money?

PSB M4U 1/2 - $250/300 - seem highly recommended, but are they comfortable?

Sennheiser HD25-1 II - $0, already own...but they are too tight on my head!

Etymotic earbuds - $?
 
Would welcome your thoughts! 
 
Thanks!
