That's probably what I'll have to do as none of the stores around here appear to have demo units to try beforehand.

Actually, if I remember correctly, Bose made a dumb decision to not sell QC3 or QC2 at BB or CC. Might have change, but that was case a year ago.

Sorry, I am not willing to sit on a 2-6 hour plane right listening to engines to get the most high-quality sound. I will take 90% or even 80% sound to have 5% engine noise rather than 50% noise.

Immature people need to get over themselves. I have tested everything and the QC2 are, by far, the best balance between NC and sound quality.



right. here you go, study by Virginia Tech. Shure > QC2
