Hey everyone. My friend has had some Bose Triports for a while now. He wants new headphones. He listens to only rock/metal and has a budget of $150. Open/closed doesn't matter, circumaural/supraural doesn't matter, although he prefers circumaural. Which do you think would be the best for him?

Hey guys. I've got a really question about the klipsch s4 tips.   I got a monster lil jamz headphones for free recently but, bought the supertips for em and i've gotta say they are pretty uncomfortable for extended periods of use.. I tried out the klipsch S4 tips and they were really really...

I posted a thread regarding what headphones I wanted to buy. I wanted to buy a K702 but was told that I'll have issues with not using an amp because I would use them on the go. What headphones would you guys suggest I buy for on the go? I used to have the Bose Triport headphones but they broke...

I love my bose tri-ports, but alas, they're not longer being sold and its replacement (AE2) isn't holding up to its legacy of great sound quality. One pair is broken and the other isn't aging well.   I'm in the market for headphones ~$150. I'm a software engineer and may go 12 hours straight...

What are the most overrated headphones? What are the most underrated headphones? You can provide a brand, or a specific line (e.g., Sony EX-series or Sennheiser HD-series), or a specific model if you choose. Oh and just so we're clear, when I say "headphones", I mean it in its most...

Here is what I am tired of: Not being able to hear people with my iM716 in, and I prefer to hear people, yet I can't wear my KSC75 because it looks to many that I can't hear them at all due to the size of those things compared to the iBud. So...will i be disappointed with the Triport IE after...

I am getting ready to purchase some new headphones, and I think I've got it narrowed down to either the Westone 3 or the Sennheiser IE8.  This will be the most I've ever spent on headphones, so I'm kind of having a hard time making a final decision.  I currently own the Koss Portapros and the...

I got a set of these for Christmas and I am not a huge headphone and iPod user. I am just curious what I could probably resell these for? I want to sell them but I do not know where to go to sell these besides craigslist. Email me at nitroznturboz@yahoo.com if you re interested. Here's a pic of...

Hello,   I am newbie on this forum however I have very essential question.   I am about to buy new headphones. I was user of BOSE AE but they died, I am a great fan of the BOSE company and earphones itself. I know they are very overpriced but I love them anyway. They are very...

My beloved Bose has fallen from the table and one speaker doesn't work.   I tried to repair it but I think I made it worse. So is it possible to do something with it, replace for a new speaker or something else?   In Poland where I live Bose does not do such thing.  

Hi, I am not sure what to get, Bose Triport OE OR Bose AE2? any help here very much appreciated  

Hi guys I'm new and i would like to get your opinions on some quality headphones.First of all i don't like the over the top(head) style headphones,so i guess that's out of the picture.I'm more into ear canal headphones,and so far I've only considered the bose tri-port earphones and the...

I've had my Bose triports(yea i know) for a bit over a year now, and i've been craving for an upgrade. I'm thinking of getting a new pair of cans this summer, but until then i'm stuck with these. I tried taking out the foam that existed over the driver and the ear and noticed a significant...

Hi folks, I've heard so much about the unique characteristics of the Bose Triports and their unmatched performance as well as their exceptional build quality that I thought it would be great to start a thread to show just how deep our appreciation of Bose for creating these headphones goes. Many...

Hi, I was wondering, in your opinion, if price is out of the question and based solely on sound quality/reproduction which one do you think is better; The Bose Quietcomfort 1's or the Triport In Ears?

Right now I have a pair of Triports and grado 60's.  Prior to buying the grados I thought the Triports were great, well now I know better.  I'd been using the Triports on my daily bus commute and at the office, in both instances because they block sound out (passively) better than the open...

Hello all, my wife is looking for some new portable headphones.  I've gotten help from this forum in finding my dream home headphones (Denon D-2000s) as well as portables (Sennheiser PX-100s), so I figured I'd ask again to get some help for my wife.   She is currently using the Bose Triport...

I'm just wondering what do you guys think about taking iGrado drivers and placing them inside Bose Triport enclosure ? Triport is so comfortable but sounds like crap, while iGrado sound great and look and feel like crap. I know Bose is closed headphone and Grado is open but what would happen if...

First let me say HI! Im newly registered here, but Ive been coming to the site for about 2 years.   Ive owned the Bose Triport ON-EAR headphones for about 2 months now. They are fully burned in and I think the sound quality is excellent, GREAT bass which is important to me, have good...

saw a pair of headphones at best buy for like 199 and they had triport on em, think they might have been philips? anyone know if they are any good?

Don't worry, I'm not considering buying a pair. I was just wondering why they are called triports--where does this come from?

The headphones I regretted the most was the skullcandy skullcrusher. I bought them for 100cad from the source.ca It broke after 5 months, the driver stopped working for some weird reason.. I should have bought a decent dac but that was before I joined head-fi. : frown::f rown:

I'm currently in search of the best headphones around $300-$500, maybe higher if it's really good.  I tried several of the recommended ones, and found problems with them, so I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.  I currently have the DT990s.  The only thing I don't like is their...
