ANC for higher freqs: Bose QC45 vs QC Ultra (alien.top)

I recently exchanged the pair of QC45 I had for a (I had hoped) better and more adjustable pair of QC Ultra headphones.

Unfortunately, background white noise in low sound environments seem to be amplified by the headphones (while hums are handled well just like with the QC45/), even if in Quiet mode, and sudden sounds like fingers snapping and dogs barking are much louder than they were with the QC45s

This has been an issue on both pairs of Ultras I’ve tried today, and I’m just wondering if this is the norm, or others have had similar issues/experiences
