AirPods perform almost as well as premium hearing aids in new study
I've been waiting for someone to point out how much better Conversation Boost is than Live Listen. It's like this study was done years ago rather than in 2022.
It took some experimentation with my AirPods Pro 2 to achieve optimal settings, but the Conversation Boost is really amazing for hearing conversations that would otherwise give me challenges, and I just turn my head toward the person speaking for more clarity through the AirPods.
In the past I tried Live Listen, but it really only works if i can put my phone near the person speaking and picks up room noise as much as it picks up the voice. I never really used it for those reasons.
I love being able to change from Noise Cancellation to Transparency with Conversation boost with a squeeze of the Pro's stem. And back to NC as soon as the conversation is complete.

How to make a bootable macOS High Sierra install disk on USB or Thunderbolt drive
I use a sweet little free app called Boot Buddy. I've used a few of this type of app and this is definitely the quickest and easiest to use.
