The Bose Design Cancels The Noise And Keeps It Comfortable...

Date of Review:  Sep 15, 2007
The Bottom Line: Overall they're a great buy. Make sure you get the lifetime warranty with them however because the plastic can crack.
Review: My father was actually the one to buy these headphones. The first time he brought them home I said wow they look really comfortable, and they were. I tried them on and as the almost vacuum seal went over my ears my father stated how much he paid for...

Bose QuietComfort 2: or how my sanity was saved over the Pacific

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2006
The Bottom Line: Terrific quality for the investment. Easy to use and store, adaptable for just about any audio device and excellent customer support.
Review: I'm not exactly comfortable when I travel. Especially when it comes to flying on planes. The crowding, the vibrations and especially the noise are what send me into a near constant state of nervousness. When recently faced with traveling overseas to...

How to enjoy classical guitar recordings in a noisy cafe

Date of Review:  May 7, 2002
The Bottom Line: I recommend these because they perform as advertised, they feel great, and they sound good, even if the price is kind of wacky.
Review: I work at a university, in systems support. The office I work in is full of white noise, mostly from the server room nearby. One day, one of the professors came in wearing these Bose headphones plugged into an Apple iPod. I was curious to try out...

Quiet Comfort 2 Provides Ultimate Quietness

Date of Review:  Nov 29, 2003
The Bottom Line: Buy it and try it with a 30 day guarantee, especially if you're a frequent traveler or a music fanatic. You'll love this product -- I did!
Review: Note: bose.com has a new promotion on their website which offers a Bose? portable CD player and free found shipping if a QuietComfort 2 is purchased prior to February 29, 2004.

As a frequent traveler between Honolulu and the East Coast, I...

Comfortable, Functional and Pricey

Date of Review:  Dec 21, 2000
Review: I bought a pair of Bose noise reducing headphones in November 2000. I fly a lot and they've allowed me to enjoy listening to music, DVD's, and even the occasional in-flight movie. (Now, if they could do something about airline food...)

It...

What You Don't Hear

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2009
The Bottom Line: For people who don't want to hear outside noises.  Not for people who value clarity and high-frequency detail.
Review: I hate to be what Arnold Schwarzeneggar would call "da party poopa," but if you're going to spend three bills on a pair of headphones, you might want to think twice before you buy these.  That's not to say these headphones are all bad.  With big,...

Even great at the Dentists!

Date of Review:  Jun 29, 2001
The Bottom Line: You will never understand how noisy your day to day environment is until you put a pair of these on! They have changed my perception of acceptable noise.
Review: My new job requires me to travel quite frequently. My existing 'bud' style earphones were not doing the job on the long flights so I upgraded to a pair of kenwood 'studio' style headphones ( where your ear is encompassed by the pod ). These had...

A portable isolation tank that looks like a set of headphones

Date of Review:  Jun 18, 2006
The Bottom Line: QC2 is a blending of two great headphone designs into one without losing any of the good attributes of either. These block noise, fit comfortably and deliver fine sound.
Review: I had tried numerous "noise-cancelling" headphones and either they didn't work or they drowned out sound by "fooling" the ear with high frequency sound pressure. That type of cheap headphone had turned me off on the whole concept, but then in came...

No longer recommended...Sennheiser offers better for less.

Date of Review:  Apr 8, 2002
The Bottom Line: Frequent flyers get them! The Sennheiser, not the Bose. This newly discovered option is much better and half the cost.
Review: As of now, June 2004, I am no longer recommending the Bose Quiet Comfort Headphone. While passing through the San Francisco airport on a return trip from Taiwan I happened across a store displaying the Sennheiser PXC-250 noise canceling headphones...

Don't expect too much noise reduction.

Date of Review:  Nov 14, 2002
The Bottom Line: Noise cancelling performance is over hyped. Way overpriced for its functionality. Wouldn't use them even if they were free.
Review: [update Dec 31, 06]
It's been years since I first wrote this review. I needed a headset to block out sound and be able to listen to recordings. For less than the newest Bose QuietComfort headphones, I bought the SENNHEISER HD650. Unbelievably...
