Recommended but with some reservations I bought these headphones 4 months ago. Whilst I think the sound quality is superb, I do have a couple of gripes. For some reason, the silicone ear tips fall off very easily - I'm now now my 3rd pair - and the cable has already started to tear, so I'm expecting it to break off within the next months or so. Not sure if this is because I keep my iPod in my bag whilst travelling and the headphones can't take a little knocking about, but still annoying considering how much they cost.

Excellent sounding, but some idiosyncrasies These sound excellent, fit the recessed jack on the 2G iPhone, and the earbuds no longer fall off every five minutes - so much better than Bose's previous version. But they are not isolating phones, so you will still hear background noise - I like this for train announcements - and they are not true in-ear phones, so they might feel a bit odd if that's what you're used to. If you don't use exactly the right sized buds, bass performance suffers (either too little or becomes bloated and overblown).more info
Just does not fit Terribly disappointed with these headsets. They just did not fit me. They did stay in the ear, but were very uncomfortable; I did not even test the sound quality. I have never had this problem with other headsets, and don't think I have strange ears. But these ones went straight back.
