OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
The Bose® around-ear headphones let you experience your music without distraction. The deep earcups with soft cushions gently enclose your ears for hours of comfortable listening. The thin head band adjusts up to three inches to ensure a great fit. And they only weigh 5 ounces so you'll hardly know you have them on.

That is until you press play. That when the true magnificence of these headphones makes itself known. The TriPort® design delivers clear bass, complex mids and soaring highs. Innovative acoustic equalization techniques fine tune the frequency response of the headphones to deliver an exceptional audio experience.

A handy carrying bag lets you take the headphones with you wherever you go. It also works as a handy storage container for the 1/8"-to-1 /4" plug adapter and the 5 foot extension cord. Plug in, turn on and experience your music like you never have before with the Bose Around-Ear Headphones.

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: Sound is quite good.
Cons: The Bose Headphones are made mostly of cheap plastic and I had to send them back on two different occassions to have Bose fix them. The service was really poor as well. It took them a whole two months to replace a plastic piece that the ajustment silder "plastic" that retains the fit of the headphones. I finally gave up sending them back and taped it in place. I am a user and injoy hi fidelity music. I am very careful with my equiptment and these things were breaking as I was putting them on to my head.
Other Thoughts: I finally threw out the Bose. Then did a lot of reasearch and bought a set of Grado Labs SR60 over the ear and they sound envery bit as good as the Bose and cost half as much. Not only that they are built to last unless you hook them to an inferior amp and blow them because of clipping. I highly recomend the Grado SR60 and so dose consumer reports and several other consumer info sites I visted.

Price/Performance

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Very reasonable set of headphones. Comfort is second to none; the around-ear design feels phenomenal, and is worth the price alone. There is a very nice foam pad that lets the phones rest on your head. Awesome, though it musses my hair. Ha.

Sound quality is very decent, though not perfect (which is a given, the things cost 130 bucks).
Cons: Seems like they have slightly flimsy construction. I could forsee myself breaking these beauties if I brought them along with my ipod. As such they are kept with my computer, I wouldn't take these things on a trip, unless it was with my laptop or something.
Other Thoughts: You won't go wrong with these headphones. They come with a 1/4 inch adapter and a nice carrying case.

Great Sound, Poor Manufacturing

white Reviewed By: ClaudeB on 10/17/2009
Rating + 3
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: Incredible sound. Sounds better than an average 5.1 system. Great Great sound.
Cons: Terrible construction. Mine are broken. My girlfriends are starting to break. Where the wire attaches to the ear, it starts to come out and tear. This happened on mine fatally, and it is happening on my girlfriends in the same spot. Normally i would be able to fix something like this, but after i exposed the wires, you can really splice them back together. I spend 130.00 to have these badboys and they only lasted like a year. Thats like paying an 11 dollar a month renting fee.
Other Thoughts: I think you can take them in and get 80 dollars store cred. Maybe i will do this and go get another pair and just be careful with them. I love the sound. it sounds so great. Im gonna get these or another more expensive pair with a break-away cable by the earphones.

Actually i think they revised this material on these so it doesn't do what mine did.

Excellent headphones

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: Very high-quality headphones, as is expected from Bose. I have used these headphones on daily basis for over a year and have not noticed any detioration in the quality of sound or the durability of the headset in that period of time. I would say I wear these headphones an average of 3 hours a day and regularly wear them on trips and outside the house. I would highly recommend.
Cons: none

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: Great sound quality, the sound has a nice color. They a comfy and are closed ear so they isolate some sound.
Cons: They are made of cheap components. I have gone through 2 pairs of these. The plastic piece above the earcup that holds the metal headband broke off, this happened to my original triports and the replacement pair. Also the plastic leather on the earcups started to peel off after about 2 years. I expected these to last for awhile considering their price tag, but they seem to last about 1-1.5 years per pair. Bose replaced my 2nd pair for $30 and i turned around and sold them. Bose assured me that this was an isolated incident and "half of 1% of their headphones have this issue", just do a google search, this flaw is wide spread.
