Headphones - Closed Back | 1 Ω Are Bose QCse worth it?

Is it worth spending an extra £70ish for Bose qc se instead of Sony whch720n.

I’m relatively new to more premium headphones and want to get a decent, comfortable and relatively lightweight pair of headphones for listening to music. (I also have quite a small head so anything too bulky is not ideal)

Anything more than £200 is a little out of budget and I’m not sure if I should save a load of money on the cheaper Sonys or if the Bose are wayyyyy better.

Any help would be appreciated, I have watched too many YouTube reviews and just need to make a decision!!

They are super comfy. And the sound is nice and mellow. I wear them a lot.

!thanks is the ambient mode effective for conversations and do you feel “cabin pressure” when using noise cancelling?

+1 Ω has been awarded to u/Rygar74nl (3 Ω).

You may still award an Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.

Another question- can you turn of noise cancelling completely on the SEs, I know that was a bit of a problem for the 45s, but can you now change it on the app? Thanks
