Looking for high-end headphones

So my family has been bugging me for Christmas ideas and I thought i'd make suggestions for some headphone ideas.
I'm looking for something with a focus on attacking, powerful bass, warm natural vocals, and precision highs.
Most importantly, I want Over-Ear headphones that do not leak sound. The last pair of over-ear headphones I bought had a huge issue leaking sound, to the point where everyone and their mother could hear it once I cranked my mp3 device past the halfway volume mark.
I'm looking for over-ears that will offer total immersion without disrupting others around me, at a reasonable price (anywhere between the $100-$300 max range).
I feel that Dr. Dre's Beats are highly overrated for the money; with enough research I hear you can get the same quality as Beats at a fraction of the cost, but I have no idea where to go.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Is a great resource. Headroom (http://www.headphone.com/) is actually quite good with their ratings and items they sell.
Big thanks, I was able to order what I needed

And a picture of the blue ones:
Since it's all leather and all the color varies and the ones I picked up are somewhat darker blue. Regardless they are really comfy and sound is amazing.
What a coincidence, that's the exact pair I ordered! This is kind of spooky
For anyone reading this, Beats headphones are equivalent to a pair of $30 headphones at best. The only reason they are so expensive is because you are paying a shit ton of money for marketing and that's it.
Please do not buy Beats headphones.
My room-mate bought a pair. These things leak so badly, I listen to his music at the same volume he does. Junk, junk, junk.
