Do yourself a favor and skip the Bose - Get the Sony XM3's or XM4's. I have both, and the Sony's blow away the Bose in every category.

So, any idea if the actual BF / Cyber Monday day deals will be worth waiting for versus all of the "Black Friday" deals running for the last 2 weeks?

I'm in the market for a TV that will fit in a 46" wide enclosure (most 50") and a computer with enough wattage to throw in an old rx 570 I have for some kid tier gaming.

Depends on what Canes has (iPhone, Galaxy, Android) as his daily. I just ordered a pair of Bud Pros through Costco for $140 with a traveling case. I have Samsung products in my house so just made sense for me to go that route.

Those are in-ears though. The other alternatives are over the ear, full sized cans.

I have the Bose QC35II. Do you have the QC45? Are the Sony’s more comfortable?

Ah, I realize the xm4s come in both over-ear and bud form; my bad. I'll vouch for the Sony's in most cases, they've really upped the NC and sound quality in the lastest iterations.

I tried the 45's, and returned them. The Sony's are more comfortable, have better sound quality (richer, better bass), better noise cancellation. Better all around. The truth is that the XM3's (the older/cheaper model) themselves are better than any Bose. You won't be losing much getting the XM3's instead of the 4's.

For anyone that cares, it looks like AMZ and Walmart have the Airpod Pros for $159. I also saw Sams Club has em for $149, and heard that Target has been price matching that.

This is on further sale if you have an .edu account. $924 bucks. Rakuten has 10% cash back. Do the cancel trick and get a further 5-10% off.

Someone talk me out of this unnecessary extravagance please.

After you place an order there's an option to cancel. Most times there will be a pop up that asks if you want to keep the order and they'll return 10% off. If that doesn't work chat with CSR. Make some excuse why you changed your mind.

You can do similarly at Dell but AFTER you receive shipment. That's how I got another $150 off that Alienware 3080 system I told yah about lol.

For the record, I would never take advantage of a mom and pop shop like this. Dell and Samsung? Yeah, f'em.

Confirming that Target will price match Sam's Club's $149 (placed an order myself)...Also got an additional 5% by using my Discover Card.

Thanks for the advice. Did you notice a difference between the QC45s and the QC35s? Did you try the Apple Airpods Max?

I think Best Buy actually has demo models for almost all of these. I definitely recommend giving them a try.

Here is a great tool to check price history and read reviews.

I also chose Sony. At the moment XM series offers the best value for money on the market, my opinion.
