Sifus, brothers and taikos. pls help me find the best headphone..

My Rig: iphone 4, psp, sony laptop
- [B]Type of usage: 65% music 25% movies/ video clips, 10% games
- [B]File format: mostly mp3, wma i guess
- [B]Music genre: alternative rock,modern rock, RnB, hop and almost everything u hear on local english radio from 90s up to now
- [B]Budget: rm1500. willing to go up 2 2k if its really worth it
- [b]Headphone/ earphone type: over ear headphones. ( pls DO NOT recommend Dr. Dre's Beats PRO cos i already have it, the design and material is cool but the sound quality is a MAJOR disappointment.
- [b]Other requirements: this is a bit tricky. need something with noice cancelling/ isolation feature ( good when inside airplane/ trains). COMFORTABLE ( doesnt put much pressure on the ears after hours of usage). no sound leak ( dont want to sound disturbing to the people arnd me). good looking ( a must), durable and built for last( if possible). SQ and clarity must be VERY GOOD, bassy but not too bassy ( dunno if i made any sense on that last phrase there).

anyways, i saw this on the stylish headphone thread. the 2nd,3rd and 4th from left looks super cool ( am looking for something like this but not very "pointy" on the cup there). Any sifus know what model are those?Attached Image

Budget Rm1500 > ESW9(infact its RM1400), its in your attached picture. 3rd from right. Woody cups with magnificiently comfortable leather pad. You gotta love it with massive voices song. Bass is fine.

Read this and you should know the name for all of the said headphones.. [Hint: From left to right => 1 to 9]

p/s: I'm no sifu, so I dunno what headphone to suggest..

Bro Agnaem, that ATH-M50 is sick man.. but I checked on AT website, pretty sure it doesnt have noice cancelling feature..

If you can wait, the Over-ear Wangs is on the way, hopefully by end-June.  It may look the Dre's but the sound is way better.  Talk is cheap, will let you have a go at it when it is here.

Here is a review of the junior, On-ear Wangs by the critical iLounge.  "We can’t speak for Dr. Dre’s personal sonic preferences, but his music sounded superior to our ears through the On Ear Wangs than his own Beats Solo HD."
