Product Description: Bose QuietComfort 2
Slip on a pair of QuietComfort 2 headphones and hear your music come alive. Decades of Bose research combine with the Acoustic Noise Cancelling headphone technology to deliver the ultimate in audio performance. This award-winning technology electronically identifies and reduces the unwanted noise around you. So you hear more of what you want to hear… and less of the tiresome sounds that have so often distracted you.
Proprietary TriPort headphone technology also helps give you the best headphone audio performance while keeping the design compact and streamlined. Unlike conventional, bulky noise reduction headphones, QuietComfort 2 headphones are lightweight and comfortable. Listening to your favorite music, you may even forget you have them on.
Whether you take them on a trip or to the office, your QuietComfort 2 headphones will fold flat to store easily in a bag or briefcase. A single detachable audio cable gives you easy access to portable players, home stereos and in-flight entertainment systems, all with less tangling than two-cable designs. That same cable can be removed so your headphones can go "cordless" when you simply want the benefits of noise reduction.

Tremendous headphones if you have $300

Not bad for cancelling office noise
, December 7, 2005Reviewer:
Yvonne French - See all Yvonne French's reviews 4 of 4 Yahoo! Users found this Bose QuietComfort 2 review helpfulPros: comfortable, works for most noise-cancelling
Cons: can still hear office conversations, expensive
I bought these headphones because I work in a somewhat noisy office environment where it is hard to concentrate. They do a pretty decent job of cancelling out office conversations but they definitely don't remove the noise completely. I've heard that they work better for cancelling out noise that has a constant tone, for example airplane engines, but I have not tried this yet.
The sound quality is great - I generally use them to listen to MP3s from my Yahoo! Music Unlimited online service. They are extremely comfortable to wear. However, at $299, I think they're a little over-priced. ...

The Sounds of Silence
The Bose QuietComfort 2 has a list price of $299; just like the original QuietComfort before them. They're not the smallest or least costly noise-cancellation headphones among the growing selection available. But they happen to work better than the handful of competing models I've tried. more... -

Pros: Great bass. Great sound. Good noise-blocking/cancelling.
Cons: The noise-cancelling is underwhelming when people are talking
They are pricey, if you spend a lot of time with them, they are definitely worth it. The sound is really great and the bass is very deep, though it does have a signature "Bosey" sound to it since it has to employ acoustic tricks to replicate low-frequencies at high volumes. No one around you will hear a think when you listen to them. You will still hear people talking around you, but they do remove ambient pretty well. I would definitely recommend these for the music, not to block out noise though. They are very comfortable and durable and when I broke part of the headband, Bose sent me a new pair. They require AAA, but they burn through them slowly and with rechargables its not the least bit burdensome. ...
