Just my opinion, but the Aftershox were not the greatest for music. When listening to a whole lot of Voiceover, I found my head started to tingle. Therefore, they only seemed to be of any value for navigation, and seem to be a pricey option for such limited use.

Hi, When I want to listen to music, the Boes type is great but, I wouldn't wear those while walking on the street. If I want to walk around, hear my gps and, at the same time, be able to read my traffic, then the bone conduction is the greatest. The Bluiz 2 has much better base but it still is far from being a good music headset.

The two are totally different. Boes are for good sound and, depending on the model, noise isolation. Aftershokz are bone conduction, meaning that they don't sound as good but also don't block your ears at all. It is a bit like asking if you should get a white cane or a guide dog. Both have their good and bad points, and both approach their intended function in very different ways. If you can explain what you'll be doing with the headphones, we can provide more helpful ideas. For instance, the Aftershokz are great for walking around outside, since you can hear ambience, but not so great for privacy or blocking out other sounds. Boes headphones sound much better with music, but will probably be bulkier and block more noise.
