To those on this forum who have been recommending spending the $350 for Bose Quiet Comfort 35 II as the best noise-canceling headphones out there... BLESS YOU. They arrived today, and I love them!!

My last upgrade was from QC15 to Sony MDR 1000x , I did try beats, bose and Sony at the store, I like to hear ‘Tabla’ a lot - and for that Sony MDR 1000x was far ahead

Wow @ $350

I have the original QC35’s, totally awesome in my opinion

If you are not in a hurry to get it, get it on eBay after Christmas, you will see many priced at $260-280. No tax 😌

Yes, EY1, they are Bluetooth.

P1, wish I'd known about the post-Christmas prices on eBay, but after using these puppies for ~4 hours tonight, I don't think that I could have delayed my gratification!

This definitely felt like a splurge and a luxury, but as long as they hold up (and they seem very well made), they will have been well worth it.

What do you wish design students would learn in school to ease the transition into needs of business? I have seen an increasing need for more education/inclusion/overlap into other areas of business that depend on design teams so they understand what goes into the process. As well as design teams into the other business teams. This would alleviate tensions and improve quality product delivery due to the major miscommunications that occur so frequently.
