For me the difference between wired and wireless over the ear headphones is not noticeable - they are heavy both and I'm okay with that. Also noise cancelling is a bonus for both, even when it's bad it's already nice. Yeah that means I am not interested in open back - I don't want everybody listening along and me hearing everybody as well. But I wear headphones only outside so for the studio or home based folks the requirements list might be very different.
