That's why I said if the QC3's were <$100, so with that logic, if the PXC450 were <$150, the difference between that and HD555's are not as far away.

there really flimsy, the only thing i like about them is that they REALLY cup your ears, it feels like your ears are deep in a cave, unlike my v700's which smack my ears rofl

Boomy midrange, I think, may be the culprit?

Prolly not, makes me wish I had found out about Head-fi back when I bought them 3 yrs ago. Soon though I hope to own a new HP and the bose will become my sisters. Most expensive gift I've ever given period lol.

Don't forget that Bose have terrific resale value (maybe not here!). And then get your sister(s) something better, get yourself something nice, pay that outstanding student loan, cut your home mortgage by 12 years, and ... ok, maybe they're not that expensive ....

There have been done some research on Bose sound signature, especially speakers, are missing a good chunk of frequencies in mids spectrum.
