Finally got the QC Ultra 2nd Gen!

Paid $329 for them about 2/3 weeks ago and they’re easily the best headphones I’ve ever had. I’ve had a few different headphones/earbuds over the years. Started with first gen AirPod Pro’s in 2021, had to warranty them out I swear every 2 months (Apple replaced them 5 times under warranty), once the

Personal Must-Haves from an M1

Got a nice pair of noise-cancelling headphones based off a post like this from last year. I could KISS the people that suggested that!

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (second gen) vs Sony WH1000Xm6, the Blind Comparison

TL;DR: The Bose QuietComfort (QC) Ultra second-generation headphones and the Sony WH-1000XM6 are both excellent pairs of noise-canceling headphones! However, each one has its unique strengths and weaknesses, so deciding between the two will likely depend on what you want. If you want the best active

This is my second set of ear cups on my quiet comfortable to die this way. The glue is not strong enough to hold up for even a year of being used daily at my desk while I work.

Bose Quietcomfort 25 noise-cancelling headphones- the best I've personally used.

This pair was a gift from my parents over 6 years ago. Since then they have functioned flawlessly despite my rough treatment- I wear these while mowing the lawn and while woodworking, and often get them covered in sawdust.
