I have used numerous different brands of around the ear noise reduction headphones but the sound quality and other features do not compare to Bose for me! I have worked in medical transcription for 35+ years and need good quality headphones with exceptional clarity and Bose provides just that. Nice long cords, adjustable head size and comfort on the ears as I use them 10+ hours every day! Love them!

I really enjoy these headphones! I use them to practice electric guitar and they are wonderful for minimizing sound when people are sleeping or busy in my household. They don't sit very tight so if you shake your head alot listening to music, they might fall off. They are fantastic for listening on the go and are easy to adjust for your comfort and fit. I would recommend them to anyone who's looking for a great quality sound, noise canceling, and comfortable headphones. The price matches the quality of bose products. For guitarists- headphones do not come with adapter for an amp. It would require and $3 adapter purchase.

The true sound range is the nicer headphones available. Passive Noise cancellation and very very comfortable to use for prolonged use.

After 2 years, it works as a brand new headphone, alaways good as a bose product.

As a music lover, I always wanted to get a nice pair of headphones. My current On-ear Sennheiser one got old, so thought of trying a new brand for a change. Bose's standard & popularity is well known. So purchased this from Best Buy and got it delivered sooner than I expected. Good Service, BB !! Pat on the back !! On the headphones, when I first tried it the headphones were very light weight and comfortable. But felt nothing exceptional with the sound. But after I started listening for couple more days and more songs, it really got better and I started noticing the awesome sound quality. I was able to notice minute details in the songs i heard before using other headphones. Verdict: Worth the money for the price range. Dont judge it based on first listen. Let it burn in by playing for couple days.
