Advantages: Fantastic sound

Disadvantages: Price

Bose has fantastic brand equity; unfortunately this often means brands stops innovating and start concerning themselves with profit margins.

I am happy to report in particular instance this is simply not true, the product has an unmistakable feel of quality about it. The headphones come in a Bose carry case, which is a thoughtful consideration (it allows you to take your headphones anywhere without worrying about damage). The Headphones are light weight, but just heavy enough to be reassuring! The quality of plastic used in the construction is fantastic and the hinges feel sturdy.

The design of the 'on ear' headphones is far superior to the 'around ear' headphones also available from Bose; of course the sound quality is sublime. The difference between these and regular in ear headphones has to be experienced to be believed! The richness of sound adds depth to any record.

The cable is one metre long and attaches to only the left cup, this means the cable very rarely tangles (which is worth the £115 alone)!

In summary Bose have excelled in this product light weight, high quality and classy design, expensive maybe but well worth it!

Summary: Expensive but well worth it!
