[Elecraft] Bose noise canceling headphones

[Darwin, Keith]

A lot of guys here at work have the Bose NC headphones to try to cancel
out nearby office noise.  I suspect they work OK in that application and
no better.

Doesn't Bose have a liberal return policy?  You could answer your own
question by ordering a pair and seeing if they work for you.  If not,
ship them back for a refund.

I use a pair of $100 Sony over the ear headphones with my K3.  They're
not noise cancelling but they do reduce the background noise enough to
be worth having.

I've always wondered how well Bose noise cancelling phones worked.
Do they really cancel noise external to the head-set?

There are times when I have trouble with noises in the house, and I
would love it if the head-phones could totally cancel all that out.
But.... not sure how far advertised is from reality  :)
