I do quite a bit of flying in an older 172, so I'm leaning towards the A20's. Price is high, but I haven't found anyone that owns them that wishes they didn't.
Which DC's? The Pro X is not made for pistons - just turbines and they do great. The One X is made for pistons and a buddy who switched from A20's to the One X says the DC is a lot better than the A20. DC has better product support, is made in America, and has the same trial period that Bose has.
I've only flown with one guy who flew the jet with One X and he liked them.
I think at the time I was confusing the two, and didn't realize there was an around the ear vs over the ear. I've since purchased a pair of A20's and I'm happy with my purchase, but that's not to say I'd never consider going back to DC.
