just bought $150 bose over ear headphones

**dragonmegaXX** · 03-19-2011, 11:05 PM

For the past couple of years, I've been that guy who will go into a tech store that is demo'ing a really expensive set of headphones, and use them with my ipod for a couple hours. However, I've been using crap $10 sony earbuds for my normal music life...

WELL NO MORE

After 30 minutes of arguing with my mom, I got my hands on a set of bose over ears at target, and its been eargasms ever since.
My only issue is that it doesnt have a super loud max volume when used on my ipod (might be a good thing) but I'm using them on my computer right now and I'm loving it.

Pumping that bass up...

Anyone else thing they have better headphones?

I never hear anything but negative comments whenever Bose gets mentioned, but enjoy your lush musical soundscape anyway.

edit: I have a pair of Koss PortaPros and a pair of Sony MDR-CD770.

I've had them for 3 years, very nice headphones with good bass.

**Sprite-** · 03-19-2011, 11:53 PM

Yep. I have these

they're amazing

Well I don't really have much for my ipod, but I can plug my Tritton AX180 headset into my computer... so...epic.

**ninjaKIWI** · 03-20-2011, 12:03 AM

I have Bose around ear headphones, and they're awesome. Comfortable, and sound quality is great. I love them.

That said, they are definitely not worth the money (Mine were a gift).

I use these on my PC

**hazard28** · 03-20-2011, 12:06 AM

Nice, I have not purchased Bose headphones yet but have heard both good and bad things about them from people. I really need to try a pair out sometime. Currently I use a pair of ATH-M50's =3

**Zageron** · 03-20-2011, 12:10 AM

I've been with these for two years or so.

Definitely some quality sounds. :]

Wineandbread · 03-20-2011, 12:18 AM

If you paid for bose you likely overspent significantly for products that could be purchased for much cheaper

Regardless, hf with your new better sounds :')

AsphyxZero · 03-20-2011, 12:33 AM

I don't see the need for massive bulky headphones unless you're a dj (and even then, it's most likely just stage presence)

These are the only earbuds I will probably ever use. Cheap, and very very durable. I had my last pair for almost a year and a half before I had to buy new ones. And even then, they were still $15. They form to your ears, and are comfortable as ****. I can wear these all day and be perfectly fine.

ddrxero64 · 03-20-2011, 12:39 AM

That's pretty good stuff.

I usually associate expensive headphones with DJs or PC gamers. I guess music and gaming made you want to buy this.

I do admit it's kind of ridiculously expensive. If I had that 150 for something to use for my PC, I would have bought the Tron keyboard Oscar/Staiain showed me (I forget). A light up macros using numpad detachable gaming keyboard that was just sick as ****. It's 150 as well. Now THAT I might have been really jealous of haha

**duddychuck@yahoo.com** · 03-20-2011, 12:43 AM

I use Dr.Dre Studio beats as headphones and some Klipsch speakers with a fat ass sub for my computer

**jimerax** · 03-20-2011, 12:53 AM

congrats.

I've been wanting STAX SR-007 but haven't bought yet (since I'm not home most of the time recently and I usually listen to the music with speakers, plus it's quite expensive).

Xx{Midnight}xX · 03-20-2011, 01:09 AM

Bose are good quality sound wise but I'm not spending 100+ for a pair i'd be anble to snap in half.

I like my sony thick ass corded ones. They're great. I hate ear buds because they suck. They don't stay in my ear and their quality is always so bad.

Listening to some epic shit on this headset right now. I agree, incredible headset.

Bose headphones are overly priced. Good headphones just not worth the money
