This is awesome info. Thanks so much. It's mainly or home office, which usually is not noisy, but I plan on using them in a café as well.

I'm not that much of an audiophile, or at least not yet. 😉 Even my super low budget headphones sound fine to me for music, so based on your reviews, I'd be inclined to go towards the Bose pair.

I'll check out the Focal Elegia as well as long as it doesn't mean I need to sell a kidney.😂

Hey,

Bose are great and my two friends also recommend these. I'd probably switch my Sony for the new Bose, but reviews of those aren't really favorable.

Elegia, as well as other "audiophile" headphones are quite expensive. I gave around $1500 for the set. But it's an investment, headphones don't age. They'll be worth similar money for quite some time. It is opposite with bluetooth ones, since every new model basically succeeds (both in terms of price and performance) previous ones.
