Please pitch in with whatever suggestions and recommendations you have.
It will be used for:
1- Music (mostly trance+metal+pop)
2- Films
3- Gaming (don't require a microphone)
Has to be circumaural, should not leak much sound and isolation should be good, has to be comfortable for long durations and should have very good build quality. I am not a bass head but won't mind some nice deep bass.
Budget is Rs 6000 but I don't want to spend money just for the sake of it. If there is a headphone that costs 2K and is 80% as good as that of the one costing Rs 6K, I will choose the cheaper one.
So far I am eying:
