Best headphones ever.... [Posted on 2008-01-15]
I've been waiting a while to write this because I was really expecting them to break, but its been almost a full year now since I bought these headphones, and I have to say they are impressive. If you love music, do yourself a favor. These things sound better than most speaker systems. If you make music, you need these! There are sounds like deep base that no other headphones can reproduce due to there size. These headphones re-produce audio like a big speaker system.
As long as you don't jump up and down on them, they are very tough. I've been carrying mine around with me in Iraq for 11 months now, rotating through a FOB, and an outpost that causes me to have to pack up my stuff and move every few days, and my Bose have survived drops, kicks, being sat on,and being tossed across the room when someone else trips over the cord. I've been caught up on the cord and not known it, and pulled the jack out of the plug, or yanked on the cord where it enters the headphones many times, and they are still as good as new.
I normally hate headphones because no mater how much padding they have, they hurt after hours of wear. I can sit down after a patrol and watch several movies in a row without even noticing they are on, and the guy in the cot next to me can't here the audio, even if its blasting.
The day these things finally stop working, I'm going to buy a new set, or possibly the next model up.
Highly recommended!
Awesome Bose Headphones [Posted on 2008-06-16]
I love these Bose Headphones; I would buy them again; They work perfectly, & do not hurt your head like many of them do. I strongly recommend them.
These are fantastic for me [Posted on 2008-06-25]
The light construction is perfect for me...I use these when I record music and I can wear these comfortably for hours at a time (3-4). The sound is amazing and I like "over the ear" rather than "on the ear" because I wear glasses. I've had mine for over a year and they travel in my guitar effects case and I haven't had any troubles with construction integrity or signal shorts. My only suggestion would be for Bose to package them in a hardshell plastic case rather than the nylon bag. The icing on the cake was that I was able to buy them for $99 on a musicians gear website.
Excellent Headphones! [Posted on 2008-06-27]
I've owned many headphones over the years but this is the best pair I've ever owned. The sound quality is excellent, they are very comfortable for long periods of time, and they are lightweight. They make a nice seal around the ears that really reduces outside noise and this has the added advantage of not needing the top bar pressed against your hair to make them stay on your head. They also come with a long cord, an important feature when trying to use them in a larger room for, say, watching movies. The other reviews all warned about durability but I've owned these for nearly a year and have shoved them into a cramped briefcase every day and nothing has worn or broke. I'm not sure how much more durable you can get than that. The only downside to these headphones is the relatively high price but I think you get quite a bit for the money.
Overall, this is an excellent pair of headphones and worth the price tag.
VERY fragile [Posted on 2008-11-25]
I've owned these headphones for a while and every couple months they break. It's the headband that is so poorly manufactured, as the plastic snaps very easily, making them virtually unusable. Right now there are three places being held together by superglue, and these breaks weren't caused by dropping the headphones, it was regular use, putting them on and taking them off, that wore out the plastic.
They sound good, which for $150 they should. I'm going to get a pair of Sennheiser HD201's for about a fifth the price if these break again.
