Wired Bose QuietComfort headphones have latency introduced by internal digital processing for features like Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and equalization, which varies by model but is generally around 35ms for the QC Ultra headphones according to rtings.com, while older models like the QC35 II had zero wired latency because their digital-to-analog converter (DAC) was only engaged in Bluetooth mode. For models with internal processing, the wired connection still goes through a DAC and then gets fully processed, resulting in a delay that is generally not noticeable for everyday listening but can be an issue for applications like gaming or playing electronic drums.
