Best $650 I spent in sometime, being able to hear the radios is great. Hopefully being able to keep the volume down now I will retain what hearing I have left. Also, watching movies in the back I put them over ear buds (AA seat back movies) and I use the lowest possible volume setting as the ANR works well.
