Already starting to hate these headphones (Melomania P100)

You bought a wireless pair of headphones to use them as a wired pair of headphones, but also to use in bed? I think someone needed to do more research before making a purchase. These are, outside of absolute ANC and transparency performance, amongst the best pair of wireless headphones I’ve tried, i

After about a month of research I ended up going for the QCU2. Two weeks in now and I'm pretty happy with them. Here's my thoughts.

I have this setup too: Bose QCU 2 + Dongle Sennheiser BTD 700 and I have purle light (AptX Lossless) and it sounds amazing, no compression at all, like if its cable connected via USB-C. It’s basically CD quality (if the source is losslesss too). The only problem with Aptx Lossless (purple light on B

Bose quiet comfort ultra headphones vs AirPods Max

I own both, and have flown with both too. I think either is a good option, but I’d give the QCU a little advantage just in terms of storage and wearing around your neck when you need to take them off briefly for whatever reason, also they’re lighter. And with multipoint you can have them paired to b

Bose Quietcomfort 35’s can’t hold charge long + Solid white light

Not with Bose, I'm new to them. And can't work this weird way how they're connecting to sources. Annoying AF! I have QC and QC Ultra gen 1. Ultra is even more annoying, but it's the quality of how they sound, both are great.

Best ANC headphones

Ive had both, returned the bose. Xm6 edges out the QCU in anc. Way better customizable app, multi connect is better, sound is subjective.

Bluetooth LE on the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen)

Has anyone tested the Bluetooth LE (LC3 codec) on the 2nd gen ultra? I'm looking to upgrade from my NC700 but I don't think its worth it until I can keep high quality sound while mic is on (I move a lot from work/music, meetings, gaming throughout my day).
Online, the official site says bluetooth

QC Ultra earbuds owners, how has been your experience with them?

I’ve had the QCU earbuds for about 5 months or so. Everything was fine until the other day when I opened the Bose app to change one of the modes I created and I see that the slider for the ANC is no longer available. The ANC works as it’s supposed to on the existing modes (modes Bose included and th

Bose Trade In Program

I have a pair of ~7 year old QC35s. They are great - but looking to upgrade to have something newer / better / with USB C. I see they just released the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen).

I would like to do the Bose Trade In program as they seem to have the best discount. However, they

Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra Headphones Gen 1 vs Gen 2 quick take

So the only ANC headphones I own are 2nd gen airpod pros, which I use at the gym, flights, vacations for gaming. At home I have Sennheiser HD800s with a nice DAC/AMP. My kid has his computer next to mine and let's just say he's fairly noisy sometimes. And so I'm looking to invest in good quality ove
