I tried one and returned it…..the Pro-X2 completely blows it out of the water for build quality, padding, suspension system, etc. The Telex frame feels like a bent coat hanger and I found the earpads hard and uncomfortable. Batteries are cheap at Costco, and actually the Pro-X2 has pretty good passive attenuation because the pads are so soft and pliable….sometimes I forget to turn on the ANR in the 737 and it’s just fine…..even better if you wear plugs underneath.

Do what works for you on a loud turboprop. I’m just shocked to hear someone say how great the ANR is on a certain aircraft and then talk about using foamies with them, on a 737. I’m on the A320 and telex ANR works great. The 8+ is almost too much ANR for the plane’s noise

I love my Bose but don't miss hauling it around. BT was ok for listening to music but I don't find it to be a killer feature.
