I concur that Bose isn't great for sound quality. Their noise-cancellation is quite good although others have caught up/surpassed them.

I'm a bit of an audio snob so don't do wireless. The Sony MDR-7506 is my default go-to. It's light and has the best midrange/mid-high detail and tone.

I do keep a pair of Bose QuietComfort for plane trips and office privacy (wearing better quality earbuds underneath).

I can't deny the convenience of wireless and will likely get the Sony which offers a wireless/wired combo in the same model.
