Long-Term Durability Problems

Date of Review:  Sep 15, 2005
The Bottom Line: NOT RECOMMENDED - Not durable. Technical support is NOT sympathetic.
Review: My first Quiet Comfort 2's were an upgrade purchased after returning four TriPorts to Bose with broken headbands.

After only a few week, that first set of QC2's began emitting a low intermittent "white noise" sound, that became a...

Well worth the price!

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2008
Review: I've had these headphones for a few years, I use them for work and pleasure. The noise cancelling feature is fantastic for flying or any noisy environment, until you try them, it is hard to imagine just how much background noise they reduce.

Bose QC3

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: Strong Buy and Hold!
Review: One big misunderstanding with these headphones is that they cancel all noise, they don't, they cancel ambient/white noise. For example, the sound of a noisy air conditioner running will be eliminated from your ears and you could actually carry on a...

Incredible set of headphones

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 2005
Review: I borrowed my friends headphones for a day and was amazed at how well they worked. They reduced all outside noise to null. At one point we were watching a movie with 5 other loud guys and I could barely here anything whatsoever. The sound quality...

Fantastic for long wear, superb sound and excellent noise cancellation.

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2004
Review: Extended Wear: After searching for 2 years for headphones I could wear all day at the office and on long-haul flights, I can finally stop looking. Most of the DJ type headphones have good passive noise cancellation, but make you feel like your head...

My concise, noise-cancelling review...

Date of Review:  Dec 11, 2004
The Bottom Line: 4 out of 5 on both noise cancellation and sound production. Few products do both this well.
Review: Here's my perspective. They are quite comfortable and the over the ear design offers a fair degree of passive sound isolation. The noise cancelling circuitry seems on par with the Sennheisers. Some reviewers don't understand that active noise...

pretty good but pretty expensive

Date of Review:  May 14, 2004
The Bottom Line: great noise reduction, not as comfortable as hoped. Not the best value
Review: I have a pair of Sharper Image headphones (50$) and finally tried out the Bose QCII -
Compared them on
1. comfort
2. sound & noise cancellation
The QCII fit around the ears (not on top of the ears like SI - which tend to make my...

Great performers out of the box, questions about longevity

Date of Review:  Jan 12, 2005
The Bottom Line: With the isolation these headphones provide, they're an introvert's dream. Turn on, tune in, shut out.
Review: Because other reviews extensively cover sound quality and technical specifications, I will omit these topics and focus on usage.

I use these headphones in a noisy office so that I can concentrate in a sometimes frustratingly loud...

Pretty nice Headphones - unfortunately with an ugly price tag!.

Date of Review:  Jan 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: Excellent build quality. Reasonable ambient noise "muffling" technology. Very Comfortable. Let down by a silly over inflated price tag. The free CD doesn't swing it!
Review: Working in a fairly noisy office environment sometimes its not enough to throw on the cans to drown out some nearby droning colleague, their inane drivel seems to seep through your aural barrier and play havoc with your concentration (or, worse...

Wear the Bose Acoustic two's and hear the movie

Date of Review:  Feb 13, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you travel a lot on planes get them. You will feel much better and enjoy the music or movie a lot more.
Review: After a 12 hr flight to Asia and not being able to comfortably hear four movies, I decided to buy a pair of noise canceling headphones. I tried a cheaper brand in the Bose store on their demo setup, and figured the Bose were a little better but...
