They sound great, the noise cancelling is very good, but not quite as good as my Sony XM4's. If you're putting away silverware or clank a glass, the Bose attempts to compensate and winds up sending a loud counter clank.
However, I cannot recommend any Sony's. The XM4 earbuds had the dead battery issue and my XM4 headphones have the random ear piercing squeal with ANC. Their quality control and reliability are not worth the risk.

1. I have tinnitus, my hears hiss 24/7 and the noise canceling makes it stop. So I LITERALLY wear them 18hrs a day. The all day comfort isn't even comparable. 45 are better
2. 45 have physical buttons which are a must for me. I won't even upgrade to the new bose because I like physical buttons.
3. Because of tinnitus I fall asleep with them on. The xm5 always activate on touch, the volume changes and stuff
MOST IMPORTANT the Bose you can change source from the headphones which is soooo important for me. Say I'm watching my Apple TV and someone calls on the phone, with the xm-5 you can't pick the phone. U gotta hope to get to the remote in time then mute it then hope it automatically switches. With the Bose, I literally have 8 devices set up and I can switch from the headphones.
The ONLY time I'd reccomend the xm-5 is for short 1hr MUSIC session. Like if someone said "listen to x new album" I'd probably pick up the xm-5
I plan to wear mine at night, also, but to eliminate environmental noise that might disturb me. I am a very light sleeper.
