I've been flying with the H10-76 which is a USAF version of the H10-30 for 12 years. I flight tested the Bose Xs and other ANR headsets.
The fact that I my hearing loss was less severe over the 36 months wearing EAR foamies while using an H10 series headset than during then 12 months that I used a Bose X does not make me an idiot, it just shows that the method I find most comfortable also contributes to the least amount of hearing loss I have experienced.
To each their own; make an informed decision and put it behind you. If your are worried about your hearing, take a test and base line your audiology results. Lather, rinse, repeat every six months. If you don't like the losses you are suffering change your protection after consulting you audiologist, AME, and physician.
