Bose TriPort Consumer Headphones

Pros: Amazing sound, nearly noise-cancelling, extremely comfortable
Cons: Bose put all their work into sound quality, not overall quality, a bit pricey

I bought the headphones from BestBuy in the summer of '03 for $150 + tax. I love the Bose Triport headphones and do not think I will ever use another brand or model. These headphones produce clear, true, and vibrant sound irregardless of the device I ...

Pros: The comfort and sound are too good to be true
Cons: They're expensive; bass boost gives you the ultimate experience

I am a music connoisseur. I will not settle for anything less than the best. And when it comes to music, I demand near-perfection… Of course, being a teenager and all, money is tighter than anything, so getting to near-perfection is usually not the ...

Pros: Very Comfortable, Great Sound, GREAT BASS!!!!
Cons: On the borderline of bulky

I carry my CD and MP3 player everywhere, the have come to the conclusion that the only improvment needed in the field of portable audio is sound quality, especially bass. These headphones are VERY Lightweight and comfortable, and has phenominal bass for...

Pros: Very nice sound, Bose brand name, very Comfortable, adjustable size, superb sound yet portable
Cons: Makes people jealous

I'm a medical student so really cost should be a very important factor to me, but its not, at least ...

Pros: Excellent sound quality. Ample bass. Light & Portable.
Cons: Extremely sensitive. Needs a good Equalizer. Dependant on source quality.

I recently purchased these quality headphones at a local "Best-Buy" I didn't have a chance to do much preresearch on this particular pair but there wasn't much to choose from so I went with Bose.

At first I thought the headphones...

Pros: Good sound, excellent bass, good clarity, lightweight and portable
Cons: Very sensitive treble and clarity picks out poor recordings or MP3 compressions. Expensive.

Comfort Simply - Amazing. They fit so nicely, warm and I can wear them for hours without feeling I need to get them off. Infact they become transparent, and forget they are there. I would say these are the most comfortable pair of cans I've ...

Pros: Outstanding sound quality
Cons: For me, $125 is a lot to pay for headphones.

I’m working on a CD project, consisting of the best of two live festival recordings in June of 2007 and 2008. I did the 2007 recording sort of by accident, as the band before me recorded and the engineer and I cut a deal for him to stick around. ...

Pros: sound quality. comfort around your ears
Cons: price, durability

hey, i'm a 15 year old guy from connecticut. At first when i bought these headphones i was amazed at the sound quality and clarity. The bass is awesome but you have to have an airtight or semi-airtight fit around you ears to get this full bass effect. ...

Pros: Bose replaced broken headphones at no charge, superb sound and comfort
Cons: Frame is somewhat flimsy and broke when removing them from my head

I picked these up for a sound class I took back in 2003 that required "good, ear covering" headphones thinking I'd use them for the few weeks the class ran and then pack them away somewhere. Whoaaaa baby, was I was wrong about that! These quickly ...

Pros: AMAZING sound quality.
Cons: Headphones are a little bulky.

WHY I BOUGHT THEM:

I came across these while visiting a Bose store. I tried them out and was absolutely blown away by the sound quality. (I kept in mind that they have top-notch recordings in the demo machines to show the wares at their best...

Pros: The sound quality, the low frequency response and the comfort.
Cons: The bulky yet flimsy appearance and the price of the headphones may be a deterrent...

It has to be said from the outset that Bose has only "just" stepped into this market segment of headphones (2002) without having previous experience in it but it must be said that the TriPort headphones are a good, although not perfect attempt. (Other ...

Pros: Great sound. No noise gets in to disrupt the music
Cons: Construction is good except at the band to speaker connection

I've got ears like an elephant. Big and floppy. I tried buds. No luck. They just fall out. Over the ear. Not to bad, but still the sound suffers. Then I found the Bose Triport. Kinda big. Kinda bulky. Kinda fragile? We all have seen the ...

Pros: Excellent sound reproduction Ergonomic and Comfortable earcup design
Cons: Badly designed adjustment assembly Badly designed wiring

I'm sure everyone has at one point frowned at the ubiquitous label - "Made in China" that appears on practically everything you own. Sometimes even if there may be nothing wrong with it (or may ever go wrong). On this particular occasion I was amused and ...

Pros: aesthetically pleasing, fits around ears well, very nice sound quality
Cons: high price

I've owned quite a few pairs of headphones and these are pretty high up there in terms of overall quality. One thing to note here is that you are definitely paying for that Bose name. The sound quality is excellent but there are other comparable...

Pros: Superior sound quality too good for words.
Cons: Headphones become too uncomfortable to wear for any real length of time.

Because I have small children, I have to watch movies after they've gone to sleep. I also have to wear headphones so I don't wake them up. Being a snob for letterbox formatted movies, one can imagine my desire for superior sound to go with it. I was ...
