mmmmm...beer 691 Posted October 2, 2018 I know nothing... but kicking around a decent set. I travel a bit and also lift in dumb grunty gyms so I would dig a wireless set. You guys have experience? What do I want? Bose? I'm not nessicerily a brand snob and actually shy away from "the best" because they are usually the mediocre a half year later. What say you?

Cruzer 1,992 Posted October 2, 2018 Don't laugh - but picked these up the other day, just to try out... Are they Bose? No. Are they another $300 brand? No.... If that's what you want - go buy'em.. But if you want a great little set of Bluetooth headphones, that will cancel out sound and have plenty of clear base - buy these.. I'm able to roam damn near 40 feet from my device and the kicker - they cost me $20. https://www.amazon.com/iHome-iB92BC-Bluetooth-Wireless-Headphone/dp/B0762XB9YR/ref=pd_sbs_23_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0762XB9YR&pd_rd_r=23175e8f-c64f-11e8-83dd-3d8b65ef1184&pd_rd_w=Uixlb&pd_rd_wg=6ehkG&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=53dead45-2b3d-4b73-bafb-fe26a7f14aac&pf_rd_r=TQQFZS4CYE311JMKXR7Y&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=TQQFZS4CYE311JMKXR7Y Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The point of noise canceling is that they use the sound waves around you, cancels them out so that you can hear the source better. It does make a difference.

mmmmm...beer 691 Posted October 9, 2018 So... After doing a ton of reading... I ended up getting the latest and greatest. The Sony WH-1000XM3's... Found a pretty sweet deal... as a vet we can get access to the Navy Exchange... I checked out the NEX website and they had a Sony Noise Canceling Headphone for $279.99, normally as they've just been released the WH-1000XM3's are $349.99 if you can find them in stock. (https://www.mynavyexchange.com/so.../12697577) However the model is not specified. From the pictures it looks like the new model and it references the QN1 processor. I took a stab and it came out to be $265.99 with the OCEANBLUE coupon. I copied and pasted the description and sure enough it is the exact description for the 1000XM3's.... https://gadgets.fonearena.com/son...10940.html Some pretty great reviews from Amazon and TechHive..... these look to have dethroned the Bose QC in every way from what the reviews are showing. https://www.techhive.com/article/...eview.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
