If you really want isolation, incredible sound quality and bass... could always go for one of these:

I just ordered my Sennheiser Cx300II-b
Just got to wait 2 weeks now for shipping!
Woot, hope it was worth it.
I was torn between the Altec Lansing UHP206 and the Sennheiser CX30II
Any opinions?

After shipping and tax and ear molds at the audiologist... probably $1400. 
Still the best audio purchase I have ever made.

There are custom headphones in the 200-300 dollar range, e.g. Livewires, Sleek Customs, etc.

I ended up going with Klipsch Image S4.
Amazing headphone and super comfortable.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned it here.

I just received my Sennheiser CX300II and love them!
The last couple of years i have been purchasing cheap-O buds. But damn. I am glad i did some research!
I can't hear any noise from the outer environment
Very stylish
Came with a pouch that fits my MP3 unit
I picked them up for $25 CAD all in.

I went from Sony Fontopias, to their top of the line earbud with noise cancellation, and am now using a $100 pair of V-Moda Vibe. If you look at the CNET review of high end ear buds, the V-Modas are best bang for the buck. I've heard Bose earbuds before (the 2nd top model) and the bass was excessive and clouded the sound of vocals/classical.
I've never listened to Shure earbuds, but they are usually ranked up there.
With regards to the high end Sony ear buds (even the newer model with the round driver), there is a flaw that is discussed on either cnet or some other site. I can't find this source as it was at least a year ago when I purchased/researched earbuds.

An Open-box distributor. But the CX300II that the person was selling was Brand new in box and grantees authenticity.
Very happy non-the-less.
