QC Ultra Earbuds Alternatives?

The Sony's are comfortable. But with the latest Bose QC Ultra 2 earbuds, I don't even use the Sony's anymore. They cannot compete with the Bose sound quality (and yes, the Sony's support LDAC, but it's not all that) As far as hurting your ears, did you try the different tip and band sizes? You have

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen).

Why do I love my og QC45 more than my QC Ultra? (separately, hands down love my QC Ultra earbuds)

I do like that the QC 2023 syncs with the current Bose app unlike the QC45s — I don’t actually toggle the modes much (still not a huge fan of immersive audio for some reason, I like the original non-immersive with full ANC + full wind block — same with my QC earbuds. Maybe I got used too used to it
