I’ve owned pretty much all of the top end ANCs out there, including the ones you mention, and I settled with the Sennheiser Momentum 4. They’re a comparative bargain and the sound signature is good. ANC is good enough. The Sonys are bloated sounding and too expensive, the B&W have a really wonky midrange and the Focals are not even close to being worth the premium.
