-Bulky
I fly quite a bit, and these headphones are essential to cut down on all of the ambient noise. In fact, I didn't realize the amount of noise pollution until wearing these headphones. Even with no music source (as in during flight takeoffs and ...
Pros: I was amazed from day one. If you fly, this is the ONLY one Cons: Cost
I feel I'm behind the wave of techno junkies even though I've been in the tech field for years. Maybe I like to wait until "they" get it right. Bose did just that. I tried friends and families v2 of the headphones and was impressed at their ability to ...
Pros: Rich, Impeccable Sound. Don't believe the weird ( or paid ) Anti-Bose Cult. Cons: Sometimes have to adjust a cup if bass too deep.
Hadn't bought anything Bose in eons. Lately, I've read all sorts of anti-Bose reviews of several products. All have either been suspiciously vicious or just a tired old Tech Nerdy I'm-Smarter-Than-You diatribe about the fact that Bose uses their own...
Pros: Really comfortable, blocks out office noise great when listening to a cd (even softly) Cons: Expensive, the "noise cancellation" without a music source doesn't work for office noise
NB I am not an audiophile, so this review is not about the sound quality. I bought the headphones because I work in a busy, noisy office and I wanted to block out the office noise. Also, although I don't consider $300 cheap, it's not ...
Pros: Really eliminates background noise, portable, battery efficient, lightweight, comfortable, 30 day guarantee Cons: Very pricey costing $300, must be on to hear sound
Note: bose.com has a new promotion on their website which offers a Bose® portable CD player and free found shipping if a QuietComfort 2 is purchased prior to February 29, 2004. As a frequent traveler between Honolulu and the East Coast, I needed to ...
Pros: Does exactly what the company claims! Cons: The pads makes your ears "heat up" after extended use.
I'm a special agent assigned to a one of President cabinet members. This particular cabinet member travels almost as much as all of the rest of the cabinet combined! So to say I know some of the pilots from United, American, and Delta Airlines by first...
Pros: A Godsend to frequent fliers! Cons: Expensive
I was skeptical of their value after trying out a set of Zoss speakerphones that are supposed to do the same thing. Also, they do not seem to do much standing in the laundry room (for a test at home). But if I never use these for anything but airplane...
Pros: Great Sound
No engine noise on airplane Cons: white noise distracting at low volumes
I travel at least once a month to europe the last few times with these head phones the trip was more relaxing. You can seriously hear absoultly NO engine noise with perfect sound and with the airplane adapter i was able to watch tv on the airplane. I...
Pros: Comfortable and effective Cons: Price. Can't be used as headphones when Off.
First, read the “Con” reviews. They make some valid points. Then read the “Dentist” review. He has an excellent description of this product. I’m going to try to cover a few other details.
Pros: Very comfortable, decent battery life (at least 30 hours), Cons: Pricey
I do not want to go into detail description of this product because the other reviewers have done that. I just want to comment on my experience with Bose customer service. I bought these in February of this year and after 3 months of use the indicator ...
Pros: comfort, sound quality, light weight Cons: price, short cord
Living in New York City, one is constantly bombarded with honking horns and other loud noises associated with urban life. This noise is not only unpleasant, but potentially dangerous to one's sense of hearing. I bought the Bose "noise-cancelling"...
Pros: Quality, dual-duty noise cancellation and great stereo sound. Cons: High price, bulkier than most headphones.
I had tried numerous "noise-cancelling" headphones and either they didn't work or they drowned out sound by "fooling" the ear with high frequency sound pressure. That type of cheap headphone had turned me off on the whole concept, but then in came Dr. ...
Pros: Noise reduction, sound quality, battery life, built-in amp Cons: Dead batteries prevent use
I tried the Bose headset on faith. The concept of noise-reduction for my daily train commute was very intriguing. I had previously tried headphones up to ~$50 (Koss) that were much better than the open-ear crap that come with walkmans. You'd think...
Pros: Comfortable, great sound, Bose Quality and fit. Cons: Battery pack is a bit cumbersome, expensive!
My new job requires me to travel quite frequently. My existing 'bud' style earphones were not doing the job on the long flights so I upgraded to a pair of kenwood 'studio' style headphones ( where your ear is encompassed by the pod ). These had great...
Pros: fantastic sound, can wear for hours without fatigue, payment plan takes edge off. battery life Cons: bose reputation (semi improving by me)
As I am typing this, I am yet again listining to the addicting Al Jarreau. Those of you that are familiar with his voice know how his tone and pitch can change in a heartbeat, and how he can be a nightmare for a loudspeaker (or in this case for a ...
