All high's, All low's...Must be Bose. Also, noise canceling, might not be the best choice for DJing. This question has been beaten to death. Search is you "friend".

I won't recommend the Beats by Dre. They're a hype item. Decent sound though, but definitely not suited for DJing. I don't know what your budget is but I've heard nothing but praise for Pioneer's HDJ-2000. Sennheiser HD-25 has been a legendary pair of headphones, although the new 600 ohm version isn't as good as the other versions out there.

Maybe not the "best" but I love my Sennheiser HD280 pros. There affordable and comfortable.

sennies hd25
i previously owned (and broken) a pioneer hdj1000s - they were good while they lasted but sooner or later they will (i bet ya) BREAK on the hinge - a common problem with them
been using the hd25s for a number of years now and its solid as FXXK - nice sound nice build quality and last you long long long time - all parts are replacable so if in the future anything happens you can fix em
Setup:
Traktor Pro 2 / S2 MK2 / X1 MK2 / Audio6 / Pioneer HDJ2000 / Westone UM3X / rMBP 13 inch 2014 (2.8 GHz) / Focal Alpha 50
Can't speak for most other phones, but I swear by my HDJ-2000s.

i looked up the hdj 2000s and theyre so sick. hows the sound/bass quality? are they fairly durable?
Im curently using the Technics Rp-dj 1200 and i love them nice and small very durable.
Love the swing arm design on them.
Their quiet an old headphone i believe but their top class :P
If you are happy with the sound of the Bose headphones, why not carry out the hack shown in the DJTT article? Get a pair of ear defenders (<$20/£15 on ebay) and carry out a transplant of the guts from the Bose headphones into the ear defenders.
Get in there quick - this type of mod is gonna be all the rage, and you'll be ahead of the game if you do it now!
