That's a bit more subjective, hehe. I prefer the more elegant aesthetics of the QC15.
Are the ear cushions the same? I ask because mine have been torn apart after 2+ years of use.
Do you know if the QC15 cable can be used with the QC25? I would like the option of using a normal audio cable instead of a remote cable. (From my experience, remote cables seriously damage the sound quality.)
Check this out from the Bose FAQ page.
So it does do equalization in addition to the noise cancelling.
And here's the question everyone wants the answer to!
I wasn't able to compare 15s and 25s, because as soon as QC25's release, Bose seems to make the 15s disappear from their own shelves. Even if 15s are still available anywhere else. (Does Costco will soon has a lot of QC15s to liquidate?) So, I don't think local BestBuy yet has 25s in demo (I must check that soon, though), and I don't want to go there with mine around the neck.
As for the ear cushions, except to say that they're supremely comfortable, I can't tell about durability yet, nor compare to the QC15's, for the same reason as previous point.
"A more finely tuned Active EQ delivers a demonstrably smoother frequency response across the full spectrum of sound, regardless of listening level." I could not have better describe it!
Not for wet environements? Damn, I'll still have to find a headphones I could take shower with. If I would have one, I bet it won't be a battery-powered one anyway
