My desk is in my bedroom and I would like to block out the TV that my wife watches while I am trying to work.  I used to have the bose QC3's that did a great job of noise cancelation.  I was trying to figure out which would be better Isolation good sounding headphones or noise cancelation but...

I just received my Sennheiser PXC-450's last night. I'm going back and forth between these and the QC15's (sorry, I'm not a huge Bose fan either) and have some strange things happening.. I'm hoping there's another owner or two out there who can confirm this is normal (or not).   When in NC...

Hey guys. My mom and I are thinking of buying my stepdad a nice pair of cans for christmas, as he travels a lot. She saw the B&W P5s in a magazine ad, and asked me if they were good, or if I could find something better. I'm pretty sure I can find something better, but there are some...

Sup head-fiers.   After lurking here quite a bit, I decided to bite the bullet on HD650 and Schiit Asgard. My setup is very basic at the moment: X-Fi Titanium HD + Bose QC15.   I will be using foobar(ASIO) -> the RCA output of Titanium HD -> Schiit Asgard -> HD650   Is there anything...

Hi, I'm looking for a good set of full headphones for Classical music (Noise-cancellation, Surround sound, No preference for color). I hope it comes with a travel case. My budget is around $300. TIA!    It will be used primarily on a Macbook.

My brother flew into town over the weekend and was showing me the headphones he just got off of craigslist for $200. I found it funny that we were both into the headphone thing at the same time, as I just ordered a new set of Grado SR-80i's and they should arrive Tuesday or Wednesday.   All...

Hi guys,   I've been driving myself crazy the last 3 weeks trying to settle on a pair of headphones.  Originally, I wanted something I could use at the office to block out the noise from construction outside, people inside etc. But, I also want excellent sound and above all, comfort.  ...

I've been looking for some headphones around $300 or under and so far these are the best I've found. If there are any other headphones that could beat these for the price please tell me.

Hey Guys.  I'm new here and have read some of the forums and topics and am still having a hard time coming to a decision.  I was all set to buy the Bose QC 15.  I looked online at Best Buy reviews and every review was great.  However when I looked at other sites and forums where audiophiles are...

I'm unsure what kind of headphones to get and I want to be sure that I don't get horrible headphones.   The top 5 headphones I've been looking at are: Bose QC15 Sennheiser HD598 B&W P5 Sennheiser Momentum AKG Q701   I know that there are other threads like this but I wanted the...

I need help selling my Bose qc15 only used for bout 40 hours at most. I found that I don't need the noise canceling as much I thought I did. I was thinking for about 270 dollars. This does include the best buy black tie protection plan which costed me 30$. These headphones look and sound brand...

If you've read my introduction thread or whatever, you'll know that I'm the owner of a pair of Bose QC15 headphones. I'm just curious-what do you all think of QC15's and Bose headphones in general? Personally, I think the QC15's are excellent, even if on the pricey side. The noise cancellation...

Hi, long time lurker, first time poster here. Just splodged an outrageous amount of cash on phones and thought my experience might help other newbies. This might ramble a bit, so I'll apologise in advance.   Before getting into the kit, this is the first time I've ever gone all-out on...

Right now I am using a pair of Bose QC15. A friend of my dad gave them to me a couple months ago. He had lost the original cable that Bose makes for them so I went and picked up a Belkin Auxiliary cable so I could try em out(mainly cause I'm lazy and impatient and didn't feel like waiting for em...

Forgetting bluetooth, noise cancelling, comfort, and all other such factors.. which of these headphones would you guys consider as the best in terms of sound quality alone? Given that all of them are used in their peak form, without any amps! Listening Genre is rock and metal. 

Hello,   I'm trying to find the most comfortable headphones in the market (less than <500 USD).   They gave me as a present the Beats Pro and i find them extremely uncomfortable.  I travel a lot and I do a lot of long-distance flights. I would like some headphones that will isolate...

Hi,   I've been looking around for the past few months to replace/upgrade from my dying/dead Audio Technica ATH-M50's. As a result, and after seeing all the possibilities, I ended up creating the "Mid-Fi Closed Portable Battle 2012 Discussion" thread, seeing as many people were in similar...

Tried the rec thread to no avail. Been trying to find some headphones for travel, decent/good isolation, and not super-bulky (no iem's they irritate my ears with extended use).  Looking to spend up to 2-300, but can stretch that to $500 if it's really compelling.  I know senn hd25-1 II's seem to...

I am looking for a close over the ear headphone that is bright with its sound. I liked the sound of the bose qc15 don't need noise cancelling but I did like the sound will I find the same quality with the akg acoustic of the ear headphone? Or would I be better off going with an iem

I tried these in best buy and the bose store and I don't know if it is the fact that it is noise cancelling but I really loved the way they sounded and I have tried other headphones but I really love the sounds of these. Any alternatives to these as they are expensive :S I

I recently bought a Bose QC15 display model that was modified to take 12v  and i am trying to figure out how to convert it from the 12v dc to 1.5v dc. Can't seem to find the where the original battery leads went, any help is appreciated but a picture of the board under the RIGHT left ear cup...

I´m looking for the most comfortable headphone. A headphone that you can practically use all day long!! A headphone that when you put it in your head you only feel PLEASURE .    Post the headphone you think would win the title of the MOST COMFORTABLE. 

Okay, so I have spent awhile pouring over the forum, reading reviews, looking at prices and I just cannot decide. It's very difficult to make a decision when you cannot test the headphones out.    I bought some able planet clear harmony NC1000C after my friend showed me their Bose QC-15's...
