I'm thinking about getting a new pair of headphones. I have been looking at the Bose QC Ultra Gen 1 because they are $200 refurbished on the official Bose site, but I'm a little scared the ANC isn't going to be that good. I'm in high school and I need them to block out people talking. I want to know how well they do with that, and if there are any major issues with them in 2026.
I heard about the hissing they do when ANC is enabled, but I looked it up and asked a few friends who have them, and they said they don't hear it or barely hear it. If they aren't a good pair for me, what would be for around the $200 price range, and how does the Bose do with sound leakage?
