I currently have the beats by dre studios but now I am thinking about trading them in for Quiet Comfort 15s after getting Klipsch s4 in-ear headphones. They sounded they same, if not better than my studios so I felt like I really wasn't getting what I paid for with the beats. I know there is much debate about beats being the crappiest headphones out there and the price is for the name but are the Bose really that much better?
I would get Shure, but Best Buy does not sell them. I bought the headphones from best buy because their paid warranty is very easy to deal with and I can just go in and grab a new pair of headphones when my current ones break.
Also, you can recommend any other headphones best buy has for $300.

Bose is WAY overpriced and WAY overrated, get some Sennheisers instead.
If REAL quality is an issue, you should stick to REPUTABLE brands only such as B&W, Sennheiser (most affordable), Shure, Grado, Denon, AKG, Audio-Technica (NOT to be mixed with Technic which is utter rubbish as well!), Etymotic or Beyerdynamic. Things like V-Moda, Klipsch, Sony, Panasonic, JVC and Philips are ONLY "okay-ish" indeed. Please do NOT fall a victim to FASHION ACCESSORIES by buying Boombox, Ministry of Sound, Sol/Republic/Revolution, Noontec Zoro's, Benetton, a-jays, iFrogz, Marley, Fanny Wang, Razer, Karl Kani, WESC, Turtle, JH, Dr.Dre/Beats/Solo, Ludacris/Soul, Koss, Skullcandy, Lady GaGa, Skullcrushers, Monsters nor Bose, because they are ALL seriously overhyped and overpriced "fashion blingbling gimmicks" with a very poor durability and sound quality, NOTHING else (and those who try to claim they are good do NOT know ANYTHING about QUALITY anyway!), BE THEM FAKE OR NOT!
Also, please do NOT focus on the thumping bass that just distorts everything else, instead go for GOOD audio quality IN GENERAL.
