Bose TV headphones: what are your options?

When it comes to headphones, Bose has some of the best quality hardware money can buy. Granted, they are not the cheapest. But if you’re a true headphone nerd (yes, these really do exist), then you might want to consider saving up for some Bose headphones. It’s not that Bose always has the best sound quality on the planet, it’s more that Bose is able to pack high-quality audio into smaller spaces than its competition. This makes Bose headphones the lightest option you have when it comes to headphones for your TV.

Bose headphones come in various models. Take, for example, their top-notch model, the QuietComfort series of headphones. These are very expensive, especially when it comes to headphones. It’s more than $300. By most people’s standards, that’s a rib straight from the ribcage. But a good pair of Bose headphones doesn’t have to break the bank. There are also cheaper ones below the $200 mark. These are the AE2 and OE2 models. These aren’t as luxurious as the QuietComfort models, but they’re still pretty good.

If you have money to burn and want the best from Bose, then you should definitely go for the QuietComfort models. These have absolutely incredible noise canceling ability. Not only can you use them while watching TV, but you can also use them while on a plane. Even when you turn down the volume on your iPod from the beginning to the middle… the QuietComfort models will still give you crystal clear audio. The best thing about the QuietComforts is that they are wireless. Depending on the model you choose, it will have a battery life of 25 or 35 hours. That’s enough for most air travel, don’t you think?

The cheapest model, the EA2, also gives you fantastic audio quality for your money. The problem with the EA2 models is that they overdo the bass a bit. This means that bass sounds will be heavily emphasized in any type of music you listen to. Keep this in mind before buying an EA2. The EA2 also comes with a microphone and remote volume controller. This is the EA2i model. The remote volume controller only works with Apple hardware. So if you’re not an Apple fan, there’s not much reason to opt for the EA2i over the EA2 anymore. Unless, of course, you really want that built-in microphone.
