The Airbus cockpit noise level in cruise is 88 db.
Prolong noise exposure over 70db causes hearing damage. Do 88 db for 25,000 hours and we will test your hearing at your retirement party. Huh?!

I abhor the feeling in my ears when I pull one bud out of CA when a jumpseater wants to chat in the CRJ. I’m still mulling over my headset choice and I’m between a ProFlight, or a Telex 8 with a set of musician earplugs if I need to take one ear up off.

The bus is nice and quiet by B17 standards, sure. But it's still a very noisy environment to spend 25,000 hours. The avionics fans, recirc fans, 320 knot wind noise and the speaker cranked up to 11 to hear ATC all combine to make a loud plane to spend a significant amount of time.
I love my Bose/ Uflymike setup

I’d go the cheaper option. But there’s a lot of good options out there these days. Avee, Nflight. Then this weekend I was reading up on Sony XM4 vs QC45 and found Crystal Mic.
Big head? Or do you wear the headset backward? I noticed uFly mentions getting the long one to wear it on the right side. Ever seen anyone do that?
