The Bose headphones deliver what you expect from Bose. Good sound quality, good wearing comfort. For the "average consumer" more than adequate in my opinion. I myself have not tried it also in the rehearsal room, but there you can not handle the absence of perfect shielding. There is still a deep, bottomless rumble in the ear which is very disturbing. Since shielding In Ears are better. Otherwise I can but definitely recommend these headphones.
