Ask seller to verify authenticity [Posted on 2008-10-02]
When buying this product, ask the seller to make sure you can register this product on the Bose website. Ask to make sure you have a valid serial number that you can register. I had an issue with purchasing fake merchandise (not from this merchant) and wouldn't want anyone else to pay 99 dollars for 10 dollar headphones.
Very unhappy with these headphones [Posted on 2008-10-06]
Conpared to the Shure that I usually use, these have terrible quality sound. There is very little treble, they sound muffled no matter how I get them in my ears. Like I had the midrange cranked up to the point of blaring, the treble turned off and the bass at normal. Very aggravating for this price. I'd accept this from a $30 Sony. Even the smallest size adapter is too large to stay in my ear. I wish I could return them for a refund and buy some more Shure earbuds. Guess the Bose in my car is in no way comparable to the average over the counter (probably outsourced) consumer product.
The Fallout From Bose [Posted on 2008-10-06]
This is a most disappointing product. The sound quality is marvelous, but the ear pieces don't stay in the ears and are constantly falling out. Because they just sit in the outer cup of the ear and are not in-ear buds, there is nothing holding them in place, and they don't stay put. I am constantly having to put back in whichever one fell out. This is most disconcerting. These are not cheap headphones,and they should be made much more inventively for the price.
Garbage [Posted on 2008-10-07]
I got these headphones because I thought Bose would have excellent sound quality and comfort... I WAS WRONG! They do not stay in my ears when I am sitting down let alone when I am walking about town. Forget even bothering with trying to use them while you jog or do any excercise at all. These are the most uncomfortable ear buds since I purchased the $ 10 Sony ear buds from the airport.
Sound quality is good if you can keep them in your ears, but if they turn just a bit the sound quality goes way down and you have to constantly adjust them to even hear the music with the volume at 80 percent.
Another issue is that these do not cancel background sound out at all. I guess Bose really wanted everyone to pay top dollar for the larger over the ear versions.
If you are going to buy headphones that cost $ 99 then may I suggest Shure because theirs are fantastic. I use the Bose ear buds as my back up pair of ear buds now.
Good sound quality. Very pleased. [Posted on 2008-10-10]
These earbuds are great. Mine stay put. I think the falling out problem occurs with earlier models. If the cord of your Bose is black and white then more than likely you are usuing an updated model. Earbuds come with three different size ear piece adaptors to ensure the right fit.
The sound quality is excellent. Best quality for price I have come across in a while.
I bought a pair of Shure in-earbuds for one and a half the price of these Bose (I can't bring myself to type the price) and they cannot be compared. The Shure hurt my ears so much I couldn't enjoy the sound.
Thank you Bose.
