Hi everyone,
 
I'm very interested in purchasing some Bose noise cancelling headphones for some long overseas flights this Fall.
I'd been hearing rave reviews about the Bose QuietComfort 25 headphones, but read a couple of reviews that suggest those who wear eyeglasses may notice the earcups cannot "seal" correctly due to the glasses frames. Since these headphones are VERY expensive, I don't want to buy a pair and then find out on my plane ride that they don't work well for my "head" situation.
 
Can anyone that both has glasses AND uses the Bose QC25 offer any thoughts on this?
 
I have looked into the QC20 in-ear models as well, but they're not as affordable on the secondary market.

I wear glasses, owned the QC15 for years, and have auditioned the QC25 and QC35. In my experience, all of them sealed quite well with no comfort issues. However, with most headphones, I simply either take my glasses off or move the frames out from and over the ear pads in order to get the best comfort and sound.
