What are the best headphones to get?

I know this is super old but I wanted to chime in because I recently went to an IT event and won a pair of bose qc 20i acoustic noise canceling earbuds. I gave a lot of consideration to selling them on ebay but decided that I rarely ever get things that nice so what the hell I'd keep them.

BELIEVE the hype. these things sound GREAT and feel great. I used them while cutting the grass and the noise canceling feature made my tractor sound like an electric weed whacker! They are really comfortable and stay in place quite well. My only complaint is the noise canceling circuitry is in a bulky box type thing which is more than a bit impractical for "on the go" applications (I'd never run with them) but for work, airplanes etc....these things are amazing!

Wow, that's cool. Just googled them quick and that's the only way I'd ever own a pair too because I'd never be able to drop $300 on a pair of headphones.
