Title: There's much better out there, people!
Review: Tried one of these in a Bose store, oh my God it was a joke. Drums sounded muddy and boomy at the same time, highs were shrill and unnatural, and voices sounded completely hollow.The Sennheiser PXC-300, at 2/3rds of this Bose's price, blows it out of the water in all departments: noise cancellation, physical comfort, and most of all, SOUND QUALITY.Me, I'm no hoity-toity "audiophile"---but I do have friends who are audiophiles, and they do plenty of headphone listening, contrary to the previous reviewer. In fact, many audiophiles will tell you that a two hundred dollar pair of quality headphones can easily surpass the sound quality of a two thousand dollar pair of speakers!To be fair these Bose headphones sound slightly better than the under-100 dollar competition by Sony and Phillips. But compared to my Sennheisers at 2/3rds of the price, they're toast.
Is the review positive or negative?
