Review:
My quick review: It was a toss up between the Sennheiser PCX-250 or these Bose On-Ear headphones, and the Sennheisers lost out because of the NoiseGard ‘Stick’, (a device about the size of a chocolate bar attached to the cord, which cannot be removed).
The Bose On-Ear are, in my opinion, excellent and ooze quality. Comfy, compact (compared to many ‘phones), with a sound quality that justifies the price. I was listening to the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack this morning on the Tube, and the sound was deep, rich, bassy and crisp. Background noise was minimal, and sound leakage (so my girlfriend tells me) is non-existent.
For a hundred and something quid, their Bose for goodness sake!
Hope this helps.
Ps. Smart carry case too!

Fine for the price, but we have concerns about their durability, and their bass can be overpowering

Takes all the hassle out of backing up, but some will want more flexibility and storage capacity

Capable, and a good choice for students, but it's more expensive than rivals and the glossy screen is horrible
