Thank you all for the help
ANC Is important to me, as I commute a lot and those reviews online can be a bit odd about which headset offers good of that or not - I won't go Boss, since I am on Android and my music quality will suffer.
I am thinking that I might as well go for the 550 or, in the end, for the HD 4.50 - the price on the latter is extremely good, and the early reviews on youtube are very strong. People say its ANC is as good as with the 550, and though the music quality might be a notch down, I doubt a 38 year old with so so ears like myself will notice !
I will give the 1000x a go this week, monitor to see if they grow any words, and act accordingly.
I did go to John Lewis Westfield to try headphones out today, but they did not have the 4.50, and I couldn't pair the rest of them for the life of me
