Bose Triport Headphones...

Post by **Turbanator** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 9:45 am

Anyone tried them? I can get a pair for £60, brand new from Bose, wondering if they're worth it.

You got them for $60? Isn't that very cheap, or am I looking at the wrong product? http://www.bose.com/controller?event=VI ... ones_index

anything by Bose is a ripoff.

Sorry kids, I have to agree with juggs.. every bose product i've ever seen has been an overhyped/priced/marketed piece of garbage

Except the bass canon thing we had one one of the local school auditoriums.. that thing was awe inspiring

In audio expert circles, the bose triport is shite. In fact, I once heard a pair and wasn't impressed. No bass to them from what I remember.

brisk, that looks like a pair of Senn HD650's. Very nice.

No highs, no lows, it must be BOSE!

The bose system in my Audi is fucking amazing.

I think I'll stick to my Grado SR225's for a while still.

I have the lifestyle 28 and it does things that no other DVD system I've ever encountered in my entire life will.

It fucking locks up halfway through the play on every 3rd disc. 2 software upgrades later, even. Never again will I buy or recommend Bose products to anyone.

it was a great deal, though--half off for two-thirds of a working unit. Now I'm no math major...

Right. So to help you out with your math, half off would be %50 off. To put it in terms you'd understand, if a guy has two nuts, and loses 1 that would be half off or %50 of a "working unit".

overpriced for the sound quality you get in return.

Bose is ok, if that's all you can afford.

I think Bose is pretty good, but definatly overpriced and overhyped. I love my Klipsch speakers, alas they don't make headphones. Some do say that BOSE=Better Off with Something Else. For car audio I hear harmon/kardon is making the best stock system.
