The Bottom Line: While they're no bargain, the Bose QuietComfort 15s currently offer the best sound and silencing capabilities in a pair of noise-canceling headphones.
Specs: Headphones, Ear-cup, Silver, 7.3 oz, Stereo, Noise cancelling circuit, Foam ear cushions, Active equalization
The Bottom Line: If you're looking for the best value in Bose headphones, the company's On-Ear models makes a strong case--even if they're not cheap.
Specs: Headphones, Ear-cup, Black, 5.2 oz, Mini-phone stereo 3.5 mm, Foldable
The Bottom Line: The Bose In-Ear Headphones are a hybrid set, falling right between regular earbuds and canalphones. They don't block out noise, but they do provide much more bass than stock earbuds--almost too much, in fact.

The 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.

The Bottom Line: This TriPort set is the poor man's QuietComfort 2.
