"I've used these for a month now, and here's what I have to say."
4.5 starsonPros: 1) Excellent sound quality - No brand can come anywhere close to Bose in sound quality. 2) Good noise canceling - The noise canceling works very well for low frequencies. I use my QC2 during my daily commute on the Metra train in Chicago. The headphones

I have no doubt that these are great phones, but there's a lot of headphones out there with excellent sound quality (and heavy price tags to go with them.)<br><br>For $300, you can get an excellent set of Monitor headphones, and get better sound quality then these.<br><br>You can easily beat Bose in the sound quality arena, and usually do it within the price range of Bose equipment.<br><br>I do want to get a pair of these though, even though I have a couple excellent sets of studio phones. These are for the casual music listener, or public commuter - not the audiophile.
