Pros & Cons

Pros

It is an incredible investment if you view it from a financial perspective. I hope this will helps you to decide (or not) to buy them. Thanks bose for the great customer service.

These sound like the oe2's on steroids - much cleaner and sweet. Bose is the best in stereo sound, professionally recorded in the studio. Sound/nr vs. Sound quality is very good but not $350 level of good.

They are amazing on a plane with the exception of voices. Stewardesses, pilots and other passengers can be heard easily. The battery life is more than adequate. I am sure they will be serviceable when the time comes.

The noise canceling is really amazing. The noise cancellation feature is more than adequate. Bose uses their own proprietary technology to electronically identify and reduce ambient noise.

They lean to the warm side of neutral - warm and fat with big rich bass and nice treble and mids but still with that signature bose sound which is a natural warm and to some muffled sound. Yes it is true the basses are a bit overturn but i love them t... Read More

Cons

The resistance to honoring their warranty that i have encountered is extraordinary. The extra $200 is all illusion from the ads.

Music playback suffers as a result with a very ordinary sound stage that seems muted.

Using it 3 times a month for 3 years is not exactly that much, even if it's for a max of 20 hours worth of flights. This equates to about 45 min a day. If the battery dies you are * they are useless.

There are others that are much lighter. The pressure is simply too much. Really * me off.

Quality

The sound quality is great and i can wear them with my glasses all day.

The audio is outstanding - rich and crisp sound quality - and the noise cancellation is great.

I was never thrilled with the muffled and dull sound quality of them and after a couple of uses i realized the large qc15;s wer... Read More

Headband on the beats broke within a week of purchasing.

Price

Because of the high price tag i'm only giving them 4 out of 5 stars; i don't think they're quite worth $350, $250 seems more in... Read More

You don't have to get a bose credit card; you just pay $50, and agree to have the remaining balance charged monthly for the terms you want.

They are way out of warranty sir and please spend $350 on a new pair.

No, these will not give you anywhere near the sound of the big guys but for $349, for what they do, they are remarkable.

Shipping

It also did not have a owners manual or any way to ship it back if it doesnot work.

Packaging/appearance

This was a great buy as i bought them as "like new" and they arrived in perfect condition.

Competitiveness

Comparing this to all other things you can do to make your trips comfortable - lounges - fast lane gates - business class - (in... Read More

I don't usually pay any attention to brands, but i have to admit bose has the market by the throat when it comes to headphones.

You'll still need beefier protection for very loud events, but as a pair of everyday headphones to compete against moderate noi... Read More

The active noise cancellation in this is just as excellent as you'd expect considering the brand and the price, but i was hones... Read More
