I have to agree. I've been using the Bose for almost a year now and not only are
they more comfortable to wear for longer periods of time (than brandX) but the
radio and interfcom communications is more readble at a lower volume level than
before.

You won't hear dead silence with ANR headsets, its just a different noise "pitch"
and at a slightly lower level than passive.... and the radio is clearer to understand.
