I was initially very skeptical, 300 for a pair of headphones? A recommendation of a good friend who also used these noise killers in an open plan office has me but led for sale. The Anfassqualtiät is exceptionally good. At no point of the Bose acts made inferior. The first sample home with crying babies and a small construction site in front of the house drove me almost in tears in the eyes. How Bose do it? One has the feeling of sitting in a completely quiet room and can work undisturbed. Although external noise is still noticeable, but as far as filtered down that one no longer feels this in the approach to be disturbing. The comfort is quite good, but in the long run even sweat the ears by fully enclosing the ear. Expensive, but who wants his peace ....
