Noise cancelling headphones don't really drown out conversations. You should get in-ear headphones.

Bose QC25 and QC35 really do though at mid level volume. You see people opening their mouths but you hear no voices.
Agreed. When I have my QC35 on, people always have to tap me on the shoulder when they want to speak to me.
Yes! :) To the point that it sometimes freaks me out because it's totally unexpected since you hear zero noise of someone approaching haha.
