Two full sized closed bluetooth headphones with a $400 RRP. Bluetooth is important to me. Noise canceling is a nice-to-have.
 
(1) Does anyone have general impressions having used both of these?
(2) Can anyone give an assessment as to how effective the UE 9000 noise canceling is vis-a-vis e.g. the Bose QC15 or the Sony MDR-1RNC?
 
Thanks in advance!

I have tried the UE 9000....and I want them!!!! They are warm with lots of bass but they are still genre friendly. They are extremely comfortable but the NC is far from the QC15s; even so they are pretty good isolators and sound significantly better than the Bose; I can't give you any feedback on the 1RNC.
