Go for the ANR headset!
I got one two years ago(David Clarke) and wished I had got one years ago.
After thirty plus years of Cessna's, I have a 30 decibel loss at 2000 hertz in one ear, and 20 in the other.
My audiogram is the classic 'sawtooth' noise induced hearing loss, which means I have trouble hearing a conversation in a noisy room!
I am early 50's, and never even used a headset during the 1970's!, very few did then, and boy, are we paying the price for it now.
The big issue with hearing loss is 'voice discrimination', once that goes, well, your licence is in the balance!
A noise cancelling one is probably one of the best investments a pilot will ever make, hearing is precious.
I only fly around five hours per week as a part time Chief flying instructor, but am planning on inceasing this by instructing full time again.
When I do that, I intend to buy another ANR headset of another brand, to complement the first one!
Regards from New Zealand.
