WANT. I didn't know that existed now. Best I've been able to do is foamies, that are better than nothing, but still let in a lot of sound. I will go look for new Bose IEM's. Thanks.
Added: Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds, I think. I'll see what I can find out. 6 hour runtime is a bit unfortunate though, not enough to get through a work day.
Btw, a lot of the blurb about these is about music playback quality and I don't want that at all. No music, just quiet. If they are 10db quieter at speech frequencies than typical 32db NRR foamies then that is probably worth the $250 to me. The amount of productivity I lose to office chatter distraction exceeds that in like no time.
Is there a reasonable way to replace the batteries once they crap out? Frankly I'd be fine with a wired version.
Sent you a DM, I can help guide you to a product and give you a discount if you really want something.
Thanks! Responded by PM.
