And I'm putting my money where my mouth is. I just bought the Proflight direct from Bose despite them not being in stock at the moment because they're running a black Friday special right now -- they include a pair of QC20s ($250 retail) for free. I already have a set of ANR earbuds, but these will be nice to have on hand.
Only if you get the TSO version (my airline doesn't require TSO). If you get the regular CA, it's still half the cost of a new Bose. I got mine gently used on ebay for around $300, so it was an ever better deal. As for the QC20s, they're great and I've been using them for years.
