> I have intermittently also used cheap construction hearing protection and found those to be just as effective
I use both (Bose QC35ii and 3M Peltor X5A) and I find the Bose is better in two ways: ear comfort and it doesn't trigger my tinnitus. It seems the Bose lets in just enough ambient sound that my brain doesn't go into a tinnitus-crescendo-loop.
Also, of course, the construction headphones don't play bluetooth audio.
