What are some really good headphones for home theater and Xbox?

Question

I want some really good headphones in the <$150 range for my home theater. I come home from work late at night and don't want to wake up my wife and daughter, but still want to enjoy a movie or some Xbox.

Obviously I'd go buy the Sennheiser HD 650s if I wanted to flip out 1/2 a grand, but that's not possible.

Anybody have any good suggestions?

5.1 sound and good bass are important!

Thanks friends!

Answer 1

The Bose noise cancelling headphones are great but they run around $300.  THere are some nock off name brands that do a good job as well for around $100.  My dad bought a knockoff pair for $40 and they were a waste of money.  You get what you pay for and I think on your budget of $150 you should get an excellent pair

Answer 2
