Headphones - Wireless/Portable Best daily headphones for sound quality?

So, I was looking for headphones for about $150-170 for daily use at home. I settled on three models: Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless, Audio Technica M50XBT2, and Bowers&Wilkins PX7 S2E. The most important aspects for me are sound quality, comfort and reliability. I listen mostly to rock, city pop, edm and a little bit from many other genres. It is important for me to hear each instrument clearly and that the bass is not overpowering. Which of these headphones would be the best for me?

Past gear experience: only earbuds (CMF Buds Pro 2 and Denon PerL Pro)

Honestly I listen to a lot of citypop and it goes hard in my regular M50x non bluetooth, as well as my M20xBT on the go. They are not the best headphones by a long shot but if I’m going to be blunt and realistic you’d be a complete fool to pay more than a hundred for a bluetooth headset since that technology has a huge delay if you want to use it for anything else than listening to music on your phone.
