If you are seriously considering a pair of consumer grade or other than aviation headphones, at least consider something from the serious manufacturers!
I am continuously miffed by the prevalence of bose headphones in aviation. In broadcast, event or audio-production you never ever see them. They break easily, they sound bad, they are not comfortable for long hours, and they are expensive for what you get.
at least do yourself the favour of checking out the alternatives if your employer aren’t forcing bose on you.
