In tests by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute these headphones proved best for sound quality, noise cancellation, ease of use, and comfort. Used by travelers to reduce aircraft engine noise, and by others preferring tranquility in their work, these Bose headphones are renowned for their full-spectrum noise reduction and comfortable fit.

In addition to in-flight noise, the headphones diminish office distractions, commuter train clatter, and other constant low-frequency sounds without compromising audio quality, allowing you to hear details and nuances of recordings.
