Computer Act!ve September 28, 2006 | Peters, Luke Byline: Luke Peters Bose Quiet Comfort 3 Fantastic design and noise-cancelling ability but with a significant design flaw For many, Bose represents small, cube-shaped speakers that offer a matrimonial compromise when it comes to home entertainment in the living room.
However, like any respectable audio company, Bose also has a broad range of headphones. The Quiet Comfort 3 (QC3) ‘noise cancelling’ headphones reduce outside noise by using some clever technology in the headphone itself.
In practice, it works brilliantly.
In our office, the whirr of the air-conditioning system simply disappeared, while at 30,000ft, the drone of our plane’s engines faded dramatically. Creating this cleaner signal means music is more detailed and volume levels don’t need to be at ear-drum cracking levels to hear any definition.
Although slightly bass-heavy, sound quality was very good and audio from our iPod, portable DVD player and in-flight entertainment unit sounded great.
The QC3 headphones are sleeker, lighter and slimmer than their predecessors, which means no more strangers laughing at your giant 1980s cans.
The QC3s need power to operate the noise-cancelling technology so Bose supplies two rechargeable batteries and international charging plugs. A full charge from the mains takes about two hours and offers around 20 hours of audio juice.
On more than one occasion we forgot to switch the power off, leaving us sans sound and gloomy-faced during our morning commute to work.
The other sticking point, we found, is the price. At a whopping [pounds sterling]275 many people will not be able to justify buying the QC3s, especially considering that other noise-cancelling headphones do a similar, albeit not so elegant, job for less than half the price.
Luke Peters Good points Fantastic sound quality; comfy fit; small and slender bad points Expensive; will only work when power is switched on We can’t fault the sleek design, snug fit and splendid sound quality, but why the Bose Quiet Comfort 3 headphones won’t work independently of power is beyond us overall HHH Contact Bose 0800 085 9021 Info www.bose.co.uk Retail Price [pounds sterling]275 Buywww.computeractive.co.uk/activeprices Also consider…
