Hello audio experts.   apparently this forum is the bees knees of pro audio tech. ive been using in-ear headphones and my ear holes are not cut out for it (constantly readjusting/putting em back in and other graphic stuff) so i need a pair of headphones that fit over (or preferably around)...

Hey guys, a friend is looking ro buy some new iems. We had a bit of a discussion last night and a lot of my other friends kept suggesting Bose ie. She is looking for good sound- listens to basically all genres, good noise isolation, and comfort- she wants to be able to sleep with them on a...

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?

    Bose is suing Beats for infringement of its patents pertaining to ANC/ANR (active noise cancellation/reduction). The causes of action are listed as:      Count I – Infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,717,537 Method and apparatus for minimizing latency in digital signal processing...

Hallo all, a friend of mine wants to purchase Bose headphones for DJ'ing... any suggestions otherwise or should he get those?

Hi Guys,   I'm a college student who listens to a ton of music/watches a lot of movies whose looking for his first high-end set of headphones.  These would mostly be used in my dorm and traveling.  The only real 'decent' headphone I've used is the Bose QC 15.  I like the noise canceling but...

Hi guys,   Just trying to decide between these three pairs of headphones (I know you guys hate Bose, but I listened to the AE2's in a store today and they are way more neutral and have less bass than the triports and on-ears).   I have discounted the SRH440 and ATH M50 due to comfort...

I am planning on purchasing a new headphone for my Ipod Touch soon. I am thinking about some headphones that friends recommended. The Sennheiser HD 448, HD555 and I have heard that Bose was a good brand as well. I am mainly going to use these headphones at home. My budget is $200...

First off, I know Bose has a generally bad name on these forums... But every thread I find it just shows people bashing their larger speakers (which have nothing to do with their headphones), or they supply absolutely no reason as to WHY a certain pair of headphones isn't good. Bose just came...

Hey everybody, I'm new here and wanted to get your opinion on what you think of these two pairs of headphones (or if you could recommend something that's better in a similar price range). I'm looking for something that's NOT noise canceling and packs a good amount of bass for around $150 - $200...

Hi all, I'm looking for a pair of headphones, over ear, good sound. I'm no audiophile. I've looked at dre's, sennheisers, bose. I need your opinion. My budget is about 300-350. Have heard the dre's are muddy, and fragile. Although I have listened to them and I think that they sound amazing. I...

It looks like Bose just released an update to the original AE:     http://www.bose.com/controller?url=/controller?url=/shop_online/headphones/audio_headphones/around_ear_headphones/index.jsp&intcmp=USB02005     Anyone have $150 to burn? It might be worth a shot, since the AE is...

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...

I had a pair of Bose® Around-Ear Headphones that I received free from a golf event, but recently my wife broke them. (grrrr....) So now I am looking for some headphones that can replace them. I am looking for some in the $50-$125 range. I use them mostly for Netflix watching on the laptop and...

I am looking into getting a good pair of NC or Noise Cancelling Headphones.  Basically what I looking for is:   1. Good NC 2. Good SQ (important) 3. Comfort 4. Good value for money.   Brands I am considering:   1. Bose 2. Audio Technica 3. Denon 4. Monster Beats   If...

Today at my local store, I had a chance to test this full-size headphone from BOSE. My first impression - I was totally shocked by how bad it sound. Vocal and treble is bordering on shrillness and, sometimes, makes me cringe. I didn't get to test bass though, because they had only one song...

Hi, I Want To Get A New Headphone I've Been Planning For It Since 5 Months Ago Which Is Better??   Beats By Dr. Dre Studio or Bose QuietComfort 15??? Beats By Dr. Dre Solo HD or Bose QuietComfort 3??? I Listen To Electronic, Pop, Hip Hop, and Jazz Thanks!!

So a while ago I got a pair of Bose in-ear headphones and I've decided its time to move up to some better in-ears. I'm looking to spend up to $200 and maybe $100 ish more for custom molded ear pieces, if you guys think something like that is worth it. I mostly listen to hardcore and metal (all...

As title. What should I get instead? I want the pinnacle of audio quality and build quality, and any noise cancellation would be great, since I fly a lot.

Ok, as you can see, I'm new here. I'm looking for something with which to replace my Around-Ear Bose headphones. I bought them because they were very comfortable (important factor for me) and because they do a decent job of isolating background noise. However, they sound AWFUL (way too much...

After trying my mates bose earphones i couldn't wait to get some myself but after research i've come to found that the bose are.. to put it bluntly crap compared to alot of the earphones in the same price range today. I'm not really an earphone expert at all but i'm looking for some earphones...

I went to an audio shop, those with instruments and studio headphones. I went up to a guy asking if maybe they have the earsonics sm3 (i live in Paris) so maybe they would have it. The guy and his collègue did not know what they were. They checked it out online, and he saw the price and told...

I apologize for asking this even before asking.....but I can't help it.  I have been out of high end audio for many years now, but remember stopping in one of those Bose stores at the mall last year and trying some of their headphones (they were around $200-$300 retail) and being VERY impressed...

Hi all I'm new to these forums, I was referred by a friend who considers himself an audiophile. So let me begin by telling you my story so that you can understand where I'm coming from and what I'm looking for. During a trip to an Apple store I decided to try out the headphones they...
