Conclusion

UmeVoice delivers again. In spades. theBoom Quiets are one very classy product. They're versatile. They look good, they sound good, and they're solid and comfy. They just really perform in all ways. The hard storage case is gorgeous, and since you can use them in so many ways, the price of admission, while high, is well within reason, especially when you appreciate the fact that more expensive, competing ANR headphones are single purpose and don't have the spectacular theBoom noise canceling mic at all. Treat yourself. You deserve it.
