"Best wireless headphones: Bose QuietComfort 35 vs V-Moda CrossFade 2s?"


          

I've had the wired V-Moda M-100s for a few years and been really happy with both the sound and durability. Looking for a new pair, seen that there's now a wireless version:

https://www.amazon.com/V-MODA-XFBT2-MBLACK-Crossfade-Wireless-Headphones/dp/B06XX2TJSD/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1500455996&sr=8-1&keywords=v-moda+crossfade+2+wireless

However also considering the wireless Bose instead, since I recall from trying on a bunch of high-quality headphones last time that the noise-cancellation on the Bose makes a huge difference in noisy environments like airports etc, to the extent that I almost worry they shut out TOO much of the outside world to be safe when walking around a city, for example. So maybe the sound quality isn't quite as high as a pair like the V-Modas, but isn't the overall sonic experience better, since with the V-Modas much more outside sound would leak in?

https://www.amazon.com/Bose-QuietComfort-Wireless-Headphones-Cancelling/dp/B01E3SNO1G/ref=sr_1_1?s=aht&ie=UTF8&qid=1500456531&sr=1-1&keywords=bose+quietcomfort+35

Anyone have thoughts here (or a similarly quality third option)? Yes I realize there have been headphones posts in the past, but never seen the V-Moda discussed so appreciate anyone's input.

which I like because of the headphone controls
if you are going to get over the ear...get noise canceling
that's like getting a benz with cloth seats
if you don't want noise canceling get over the ear to save some $$$ if you don't want ear buds
saving up for the Bose QuietControl 30 which are the air buds and noise canceling at the same time

so I would go with the Bose headphones. They are the gold standard. My LB has a pair that he has used for about 7-8 years maybe longer and he swears by them. I am sure you will be happier with those.
