"Bose Quality is Excellent, as usual"
Pros: Lightweight, sound great
Cons: Headband a little thin
Summary: I don't understand why people bash these headphones so much (except headband.) People complaining about sound quality not being good. Let me remind the people, these are HEADPHONES, not a 5.1, 6.1, or 7.1 home theater system, these do not have a subwoofer, these are not a speaker system, these are HEADPHONES. No one should expect home theatre performance out of headphones. These headphones deliver excellent sound. Great bass and treble. These headphones are not presumptious, promising home theatre sound, they deliver what they say they deliver. And they do live up to Bose quality, which is excellent. I have a Bose car system as well, and I say that Bose is not all hype, Bose does what they say they do, and that is deliver great sound in small spaces. Due to these headphones, I have heard some sounds in my music I'd never even noticed before, little notes previously unnoticeable. I recommend these to anyone. In addition, I recommend Bose products to anyone.

You say they shouldn't be compaired to home theater sound? I have a 20 year old set of AKG K140's that sound as good or better than ANY speaker set up I've heard. I've never listened to these head phones so I can't comment but I did try the more expensive Bose model and they were inferior to my AKG's but acceptable. My impression of all Bose products I've heard is decent sound, way over priced.
