From Engadget:

Those Bose TriPort IE headphones we told you about along with the OEs? Well, we got some leaked pics for ya. They just look like your regular in-ear phones (pics of the attachments after the break), but they look as though they might be at least partly open -- which would be a good for fliers like us who often have inner-ear pressure problems with thpse sealed-up-tight sound-reducing earpieces. No word on price yet, but the IE and AE phones should go on sale the 12th.

You cannot be kidding! That's contradictory!

The concept of open IEM is simply flawed. Do these have proprietry Triport headphone technology too?

I can only see one port...

Indeed they have.

Quite honestly, I have no problems with Bose products because they all look pretty nice and are superbly comfortable. However, these just look a bit odd... If they're not going to sound good, at least make them visually appealing.

Awesome, I'd definetly like to try those out if possible. The open design reminds me of the SR-001.

Cost ?

I'm sure they aren't worth the asking price...of course.

Those marketing guys at Bose are smart. When will there be a Bose DAP?

 

[nikongod]

philips made an iem with an open back and an active noise canceler.

the noise canceler on the philips worked QUITE well, but introduced a hiss into everything.

perhaps bose is using a better (i said perhaps to account for the possibility of not better) design for their active noise canceler.
