Not for everbody... For many years BOSE® has been synonymous with "great sound" and, in general, if you bought a BOSE® product you wouldn't be disappointed. Unfortunately, for me, that wasn't the case with their TriPort® in ear headphones. For the money, I was expecting these to be the last pair of headphones I'd ever had to buy - unless, of course, I damaged or lost them. No such luck! Don't get me wrong, there's nothing fundamentally "wrong" with these headphones. But, by the same token, they're not so... more info
Price can seem pretty steep, but you get what you pay for. First off these headphones only cost £69 new from Bose themselves so don't pay over the odds from marketplace sellers for them.

The in ear design is uncomfortable and takes getting used to which shouldn't be the case, Sound quality is not what you expect, i have an Audi with a Bose system and the sound is great, earphones however are a different story, the volume is equalised so that if you are in a noisy environment the volume has to be at the highest; not what you want leading to the question why have the awkward ear design?
