Bose Around-Ear Headphones Review
I do not consider myself an audiophile but I admit that I like to listen to much music as I spend about 8-12 hours a day listening to music using my iPod and computer. Overall, these headphones do everything I need to make regarding performance. The sound quality is solid as some other advice I can hear things I have ever heard in my music before if I'm listening to rock or symphonic music. During my shopping for headphones I heard many others put out by Bose, Sony, Philips, etc. so I knew what was out there before buying and these are generally better than many of even the noise-canceling headphones I have ever found.
There were concerns about the construction Which I admit I had some doubts about They are very light weight and I was afraid I was going to break them on several occasions. However I will also tell you that I removed some pieces of heavy steel (over 40 pounds) on them before and kept up with surprised me because I expected the headphones crushed - but this may have been a fluke.
The main things I hate, and this depends very much use either the vinyl around the sleeves because I believe that will eventually break down even though I've had mine for 6 months and have not addressed this. Although I often times get sweaty while working on different things and tend to attack a bit 'I can not stand. Finally the other things is a nuisance for me is the cable 10 feet, which is great if you're listening to music outside a stereo sitting on the couch with your iPod or using the computer. However, if you intend to use them at work or outside around quickly can become a nuisance unless it bind together.
I would suggest to those users who I think you find that they meet most of your needs although I will also admit that you might find some units cost less to your needs.
