Rating: - if you fly, these are the best headphones
If you fly, these are the best phones you can get. I have used several different noise reduction headphones, including the Sony ones, and these are 10x better. Good sound.
Somebody mentioned that they're bulky. A little. Good for planes, but I use other phones if I am and and about. Get these when noise reduction is the primary issue.
Somebody mentioned they fall apart. The old ones, which were "champaign" colored had some problems. The new model, which is silver, ... Read More
Rating: - Yes!!!
I had the first edition of Bose noise cancelling headphones for about 5-6 years, and loved them. Eventually the covering started to wear out (maybe my beard helped shorten the lifespan a bit), and while the sound was still great the material would flake. I bought the new QuietComfort2, and love them even more.
These are lighter (and so even more comfortable) and take up less space when packed in the carrying case. The sound is still phenomenal.
Rating: - Seasick anyone? Best sound yet though...
These are GREAT headphones.. Its really neat to have them on and have all the noises outside drop away.. However, I find that they make me motion sick when I wear them. Apparently it's to do with the frequencies used to cancel the noise.. Only happens to some people though so my recommendation is get them! and they come with a BOSE 90 return policy so if they bother you at all you can return them.
Rating: - They just don't work well....
My wife gave these as a Christmas present. I am sure she felt that since they cost so much they must be good. I have now used them extensively on my home and portable stereo equipment (running both high-end analog and digital media) and within seconds of using them I was suspect of the audio quality. After several days of listening (and fiddling with my equipments controls in an effort to improve the sound) I have given up. The bass sounds are completely muddled. The highs get lost in this tinny ... Read More
Rating: - Like listening to music in a symphony hall
I bought these headphones for my husband about 2 years ago, but I often borrow them. They are so comfortable, like wearing pillows on your ears and they do a great job of canceling out background noise and work great when flying. I love listening to classical music with these headphones because the sound is so crisp and clean that it's like being right in the symphony hall and hearing the music live and in person.
I guess the only drawback would be their size. They aren't like small ... Read More
