Does anyone actually use Bluetooth adapters on planes?

My Bose QC’s come with a cord I can just plug into the inflight entertainment if it’s a long flight. If it’s short and I don’t want to bring those I can listen to an audiobook or podcast on my phone with AirPods

No trade-in program for QuietComfort Ultra Gen 1 Overear ?

The QC Ultra Gen 2 over-ear just dropped… and let’s be real: the “upgrades” (USB-C audio, better mic, more solid immersive/cinema mode, stable connection) are not really new features. They’re literally the stuff Gen 1 should have had from day one.

It feels like Bose has been making a habit of this

Please, please do not buy the Bose Quietcomfort Ultra Earbuds

Praying this appears to potential buyers of the Bose Quietcomfort Ultra Earbuds. Please, please do NOT buy them. I've had such a myriad of issues with them, I've had to have them replaced 3 times due to seal and charging issues. And even when they function as intended, the slight buzzing interferenc

From the 70s to the mid-2020s

Here’s my setup put together over the last few years, starting w/ a vintage Elac Miracord 50H turntable my grandfather bought in the early 70s, built in West Germany (from the owner’s manual). I run it through the Fosi X2 phono preamp into the Yamaha A-S301. The two other inputs are an SMSL 1000 CD

Ordered refurbished QuietComfort headphones from Bose for $143 (code SAVE10) and received a brand new unit

The seal on the back says ‘refurbished’ but it came in a new retail box in a brand new condition. Upgraded my old QC35ii and the bluetooth range on the this unit is almost double.

are the IEMs worth it? advice before placing an order for my first DAP

With the Echo Mini, you're going to be limited to the SBC codec, which is really not great when it comes to sound quality. You could use your Bose with a wired connection, though, and it will sound much better than Bluetooth. Will IEMs be an improvement in sound quality over wired, over ear headphon

My 4th pair of Bose QuietComfort Ultra's... all faulty!

I've just sent off my fourth pair of Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones for a replacement - this will be my third replacement due to recurring issues. Each pair has had problems like random Bluetooth disconnections or noticeably low sound from the left ear. I'm genuinely puzzled. I wear them every s

I love my Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds 🎧

I just wanted to say… these things are phenomenal.

The noise cancellation is unreal — it’s like stepping into a private sound bubble. On public transport? Gone. People chatting around me? Gone. Just me, my music, and peace.

The sound quality is rich, warm, and balanced — not too bass-heavy, not to

Bose QuietComfort Ultra VS Sony WH-1000XM5

I had Sony WH-1000XM5 for 6 months. After that, unfortunately, right earcup stopped working. I was compensated the money and decided to buy a Bose QuietComfort Ultra as I thought it'd be an upgrade. I used Bose QC Ultra for 2 days which was enough for me to make a comparison between them.

Multipoint on QC ultra finally!!

Multipoint is finally here. It took them long enough to release the update. I’m not sure how reliable it will be, considering how unstable it is currently. I’ll share my thoughts after the update and expect more users to do the same.
