I love my Bose...

Thanks, I didn't realize you could get more than 20-25 isolation out of ear buds. I have added them to my watch list.

That's not quite what I mean. Some in ear monitors like the Etymotic ER-4's that provide between 35-42db of noise isolation. These are significantly better at blocking noise than most ear plugs. ...

QC1's took a dump on me.... Show very little signs of wear but one speaker / ANR is going whacko and producing low pitched hum. Maybe a bad capacitor or the like in the ANR.
According the...

I know some of the better In Ear Monitors can block up to 20-25db with a good fit. They are not active, but the flip side of that is, no battery, smaller, lighter, etc. Might be worth considering.
