je.juneI see your problem there... Just a bit more tape and you can completely cover the ugliness of that NAME on your headphones lol!

Pmeagher1I'm fully aware of the brand stigma, BUT AE2s are the most comfy headphones I've ever worn by far and the sound is not bad. I'm really sad that Bose doesn't make them anymore.
Don't go out and buy a new pair of the "upgraded" models. I've compared the SoundTrues and AE2s side by side and the new ones sound like $20 headphones. They were overpriced new but my work paid full price for the ones I use at the office and my home pair I got used off eBay for $50.
I can wear it forever and it doesn't press on my glasses. I have more expensive headphones that I can only wear for 1-2 hours before I have a headache. I bought a lot of headphones before I tried a friends pair of these and there was no going back... you'll have to pry these my AE2s from my cold dead hands.
The cable is horrible though.

Pmeagher1I thought Bose was considered good. What's wrong with Bose?

BlueCrownedWhat is it that people have been saying that BOSE stands for, for like, decades? Buy Other Sound Equipment or something like that.
It's not terrible, it's just that you can usually get better sounding stuff for the same price if you do a bit of research. Bose just does a very good job of marketing and product positioning, so it's what people buy if they don't want to research.
Good noise cancellation headphones though.

je.juneHey bud.
Just wanted to throw out a pair of headphones I have had since release and after a year I bought another one to have for friends over.
V-Moda M100's Crossfades Over Ear.
Originally cost $300 but you can get them at $150 which is unreal.
They also allow you to have either 2 audio inputs at once or daisy chain headphones.
And to top it off, there is the lifetime warranty trade in, you get credit for a new pair if they for some reason break which after nearly 5 years and thousands upon thousands of hours of use, mine haven't.
The pads are to die for and ultra comfortable especially seeing how I wear glasses all day.
I don't even need to mention the sound quality but will, I personally think they sound incredible considering they lean towards bass heavy. Anyways, just throwing that out there.
I have 3 pairs of V-Moda and can't imagine using anything else.

BrainFlushI've had multiple pairs of V-Moda earbuds (Bass Freq). Those specific ones, sound was good for the price but they always crapped out. I haven't tried the headphones you're talking about but my friend has a pair. They seemed nice, but I'm not a fan of V-Moda's design.

BlueCrownedThey're extremely overpriced. You can get better sounding headphones for less. But I highly recommend getting some used AE2s off ebay for 40-50 bucks if you want to be in headphone comfort heaven.

je.juneI can't comment on ear buds.
And yes. If style is an issue I understand.
They look good on me and if they didn't I still would use them but that's because of their quality overall to price ratio.
At least you know of them.
Take care and thanks for the response.

If you want something that is high quality, look elsewhere. It's an okay sounding microphone for an okay price (actually i think if they lowered the price to 14.99 or 19.99, people might complain less.)
The quality not bad enough for me to get a ModMic while the MD Minimic it's still working, but if and when it breaks, I wouldn't buy another to replace it.
