Love my pair of
Sennheiser RS 170s. Not cheap, but well worth it.
Yes they're 'ear muff' design, but that's part of what gives you great noise cancelling design*. GF and I can get great movie quality surround sound late at night without disturbing neighbours. (You can run up to 4 sets off one base station).
*Turns out the 'ear cushion' section is modular, so you can buy the über comfy velour pads from the priciest 180 model as replacements and snap them into the lower end 170 cans later.
Four thumbs up.
