Bose QC2 vs. Sennheiser HD 570

byfrank88 Jul 7, 2006
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros For home, Sennheiser HD 570 recommended when compared to Bose QC2.
Cons Bose QC2 are convenient and comfortable at three times the price.
Recommended it? Yes

Just comparing sets of phones, as I have both. Equipment: Sony Discman (now 20 years old, made back when Sony made fine components, and this Discman STILL functions just fine), run into a Kenwood receiver. Disc: Pretenders "The Isle of View," at -17 dB, which I don't recommend, but if you love your... Read full review »

A portable isolation tank that looks like a set of headphones

byjlc2005 Jun 18, 2006

Pros Quality, dual-duty noise cancellation and great stereo sound.
Cons High price, bulkier than most headphones.
Recommended it? Yes

I had tried numerous "noise-cancelling" headphones and either they didn't work or they drowned out sound by "fooling" the ear with high frequency sound pressure. That type of cheap headphone had turned me off on the whole concept, but then in came Dr. Bose.

Pay attention to DATE of reviews here!

Pros Much-improved sound quality, very comfortable, good battery life, nice case
Cons Cost (though I got mine free through AMEX Rewards)
Recommended it? Yes

Many of the more negative reviews listed for the QuietComfort 2 are actually for the original QuietComfort model. The QC2 is head and shoulders above the original QC, especially in sound quality. I think that Bose heard the masses and did their homework on the newer model.

I'm a bit of a... Read full review »

A good investment for some

bycolorado_guy Apr 8, 2006

Pros Recommended for airline travel Comfortable and great noise cancellation Nice hardcase
Cons None come to mind at the moment
Recommended it? Yes

After trying a few different noise cancelling headphones, I finally bit the bullet for the Bose QC2. The clincher was the offer of a Bose CD MP3 player for "free" with purchase...it seemed to make the high price tag more palatable. This is an occasional promotional thing, and I was patiently...

Great for Public Transportation

Pros Superb job of reducing noise, excellent audio quality.
Cons Price.
Recommended it? Yes

I use the Bose QuiteComfort 2 headphones while riding San Francisco Muni's buses and light rail vehicles, and on BART. They have been simply wonderful! They reduce the noise to such an extent that I can listen to my music and podcasts at fairly low volume levels. Prior to the Bose headphones, I... Read full review »

Bose QuietComfort 2: or how my sanity was saved over the Pacific

bytelynor Feb 22, 2006
73 Helpfuls 74 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Very comfortable over-the-ear comfort. Excellent sound. Hard carrying case.
Cons These are not small or sleek. Mine kept slipping off during the flight. Expensive.
Recommended it? Yes

I'm not exactly comfortable when I travel. Especially when it comes to flying on planes. The crowding, the vibrations and especially the noise are what send me into a near constant state of nervousness. When recently faced with traveling overseas to New Zealand, I decided the time had come to do... Read full review »

I waited three years too long to purchase a pair of the Bose Quiet Comfort 2 headphones but now that I have them, everything will be ok. I have to travel a LOT for work and now that I have a pair of these, my travel days don't seem as bad. The long flights between Vancouver and Chicago *4 hours)... Read full review »

Pros Comfortable, good noise reduction, detachable/replaceable cord, sound decent

Recommended it? Yes

After owning a pair of Sony MDR-V500's for nearly five years, it was finally time to replace the uncomfortable noise blasters. Walking through Denver International Airport, I spotted the Bose stand and decided I'd give a $300 pair of headphones a whirl on my MP3 player to see if they could deliver... Read full review »

Earpads come apart after 2 years

Pros Runs good for about 2 years.
Cons Earphones pad come apart after 2 years with glue sticking to your ears.
Recommended it? No

Yes the earpads are very soft and comfortable
BUT they start coming apart in less then two years.
Apparently they use a glue that moisture causes them to come apart.
You would think Bose for the huge price would do a better manufacturing effort.
Plan obsoletion must be their... Read full review »
