So I flew first class for the first time 2 weeks ago and they gave everyone some nice Bose noise canceling headphones and I was amazed how well they worked. I'm sure they weren't the nicest ones out there but does anyone have any recommendations for noise canceling headphones?
Recommend me a pair of headphones

Sennheisers are great cans. The Grado SR60 is an excellent choice for a lower price point. Spend a few minutes cruising the head-fi.org board.
they sound the same. 8 - 28,000 Hz.
450s have a talk through feature so you can press a button on the earphone and talk to people without taking them off. go for it if you want to feature.
if only ultrasone had noise cancelling phones.
ultrasones are awesome because they are easier on your ears. they don't shoot sound directly into the ear canal but instead let it diffuse throughout the entire ear. they are perceived as the same volume but db level is 40% lower.

Yeah, I saw that they had that feature but for $100 more I thought they may do more cool stuff as well.
Thanks for the edumacation. I'm very out of touch compared to how insanely particular true audiophiles are.
I did just that when I started looking around after I saw Guysmy's recommendation for the Sennheiser PXC350s.
Some of those guys do NOT FUCK AROUND when it comes to audio.

I have a pair of Shure earbuds that I prefer for traveling. They're not cheap, they would be the equivalent of the 210 model on this page which is $180... Shure - Earphones
They fit in the ear canal and have a good seal so you can't hear a damn thing around you, and they sound great.

I have the Sennheiser PXC 450's.
Haven't found anything better for traveling/noise cancelling. Incredibly comfortable too and the talk through is actually very convenient for ordering drinks or answering a question without having to take them off. Works very well.

no highs no lows - must be BOSE!
Bose is a company we should all take notes from. Product a moderately okay product, price it 3x higher than it's worth, and market the SHIT out of it.
Demos, testimonials, etc. Brilliant marketing, complete waste of money bang/buck wise.
