| Bottom line | With the QuietComfort 3s, Bose has done a remarkable job of shrinking its popular noise-canceling headphones while achieving similarly impressive sound quality--but that engineering feat doesn't come cheap. | Bose's Wave Music System improves upon the original in both design and performance. | This TriPort set is the poor man's QuietComfort 2. | Bose's standard-setting noise-canceling headphones have just upped the ante. |
