Bose ® QuietComfort ® 20 Acoustic Noise Cancelling ® Headphones (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have quite a while busy myself with these headphones, but also with the Over-Ear (QC25). To appreciate my review better: I have already Bose headphones (MIE2) and am very satisfied. But now that sought that provide similar sound, but just hide the ambient noise so you do not have to make unnecessary loud music. I like listening to classical music and quiet and there disturbing noise already.
Since me the price has always deterred, I compared a long time. The QC25 I at a major electronics market to the test wall had last week on time and was floored. Until then I did not know such a technique and could not believe it, it actually works. All the loud noise of the huge retail space were gone. However, the voices of the people who were closest to me, I could not understand.
But as I previously had in-ear, which I wanted to be, just handy during transport and more comfortable for me to wear. But I could not believe that in-ear should be just as good as the over-ear. So I was still in the Bose store to see me both compared to because they did not have in the electronics market.
The seller has made me both directly in the shopping time in the store to try. Strangely, I had here not as the electronics market the impression that the Over-Ear swallow everything. I've heard a lot of voices. From other reviews I know that probably something occurs when the battery is no longer full. Whether that was the case here, I do not know, because the seller had the device in their hands.
But anyway, I was delighted with the in-ear. Do not oppressed and have everything "swallowed". What remained was a noise that sounded to me like a softly babbling brook. That's not the absolute silence, but I bought it because for me it fulfill its purpose.
At home I have it. Now for a few days in use and am so excited that I was writing this review now If more negative things occur in retrospect, I will add it.
My friend likes to play on the console and the games all make sounds that have always forced me to make my music louder than necessary. That's all gone!
However, votes can still hear, quite quiet, but they are in a quiet environment to hear clearly, especially children's voices. But that is very quiet and if you do the music, it is not troublesome for me.
So if you do not really expect the absolute silence, this headset is top.
I get along well clear to the seat. Operation is simple. With the button on the cable can display the ambient noise again. They are therefore also definitely understand better than if you have inside the headphones, but the device does not turn on itself. In this way, the music sound is not good. You should be always used in the on-state.
The cable noises are some mention because, yes. But in my opinion, because you just plug the headphones directly into the ears. The same effect has yet even when wearing earplugs and rubs it. Those who have slept with earplugs before, know how strange it is sometimes the pillow "hears". Whether the cable noise even when over-ear were, unfortunately I do not know because I have not respected it.

What for me, however, does not go, that's the bag that is. The deserves not the name pocket. It is made of a kind of neoprene with zipper. In contrast to that at that time was present at my MIE2, a joke. In the old I had at least the impression that I could trust them with my very expensive headphones and then throw the bag in her purse. Where indeed finding of objects before the bottom is turned to Colonel. The new so I would never throw in their Neoporen envelope in her purse. Especially since the case is far too short. The device, which houses the battery, of course, front and rear cable. They come as 1 cm to a greater state out what is sure to prevent the cable break. But to these things now need to get into the casing are extremely strong bent just behind this enhanced centimeter cable. This can not go long good. Even if the cable is thicker than normal headphones. Whoever does his nearly 300 EUR expensive headphones to something ?? In my opinion, can be in the price range expected something better. Or Bose should leave out the pocket, lower the price a bit, and to offer a clever accessories. Then you would not be so disappointed. Aside from the fit and the type (not stable Neoprene) it is in my eyes also very ugly.

I use the headphones the way with a Motorola RAZR i. And since I can use the buttons on the cable only "break", a volume-control will not do. But honestly, I do not know if it would work at all. But since I already knew from my MIE2 so, I did not expect anything else. This has therefore played no role in my assessment.

Conclusion:
- Shell crap and useless for the accommodation of 300 EUR expensive headphones
- Headphones bring calm, though not silence (especially voices be heard.)
- Acceptable minimum noise that remain (the sounds of the games on the television console had disappeared)
- Price is higher than the performance. Or maybe the expensive development has yet to pay full price and he falls sometime (realistically I'd find 180-200 EUR) ??
- In not connected condition the usual Bose sound quality
- Sit comfortably

Points are deducted for this hideous and absolunt not matching envelope, which must not happen in such a price range.

Addendum after 1 month (permanent) use:
- For outside it is nothing, because wind noise are greatly strengthened, according to what I feel to be very uncomfortable.
- He is not usable Likewise, if you want to use it in an old RB, where indeed all the windows are at high temperatures even at full speed all open. Because then the wind noise is also extremely transferred, just like the pressure.
- Cable noise are disturbingly loud when wearing earrings while and moves. The "striking" the earrings to the cable are transmitted relatively loud.
- On the train it is extremely loud and almost hurts when a train passes (by printing or so) in the ears directly on the siding. Because the crack and the pressure are wahrnehmenbar already without headphones, reinforce extreme.
Otherwise I feel the noise reduction on the train but to be very pleasant, especially in S- and trams.
- After prolonged wearing sweat inside my ears, feels weird.
- Bag I have, incidentally, bought a hard case for e-cigarettes. Fits very well, plenty of space.
