If you are going to use something that much I would say don't cheap out. I currently have a pair of Sony WH-xm3. I purchased them over 5 years ago and use them daily. They have travelled around the world twice with me and I replace the ear muffs every 2 years. I still get a good 30 hours out of them.

I would also recommend the XM series. I have both the xm3 (personal) and xm4 (work) and there's barely any difference, so you might want to see if you can find the older xm3's for cheaper.

I've worn my xm3s for thousands of hours over 5+years, but have never replaced the pads. What does it do? Does it make the NR of better? Or just a comfort thing?
