Bose QuietComfort 2 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones £299 six months ago £199. a right bargain. sorry to say though they helped for a while the hearing has deteriorated a lot faster than the Docs expected or i wanted,,,, All but gone in one ear so these are wasted on me and should be used and appreciated for the amazing sound quality and the noise cancelling works well as it kept our lasses dulcet tones out. Let me know if your interested. Done a search of Ebay etc and they are still going for higher prices than that. No one on the other BBs wants em LOL
