    There are companies that make a definite mark on the industry that their in; whether they are known for great reliability, great quality, or both. In the world of audio technology, that company is Bose. It is known for putting out audio technology, especially headsets, that are not only comfortable and durable, but offer sound quality that is difficult to match. In particular, their Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Cancelling Headphones have jumped leaps and bounds in popularity since their release several years ago. They are so popular in fact that many airline magazines advertise them as ideal flight headsets for those looking for silent, disruption-free flight. Let’s take a look at how buying your own pair can change your take on listening to music in the air or at home.

    History of These Headsets

    While many companies have taken on this incredible technology in order to enhance the quality that comes from their headsets, many consumers don’t know that it was originated by Dr. Amar Bose in 1978 under the name Acoustic Noise Cancelling Technology. One day, he was taking a long flight on which he was wearing the airline’s headphones and he felt the quality was disappointing, mostly so because he heard the engine roaring and cabin noises over his headset. Even more, turning up the volume didn’t mask any of the noises, it only distorted the music. So he sought to create technology that could mask the noise without distorting the music. From this came the technology he created that would reduce unwanted noise and increase the quality of music, and as a result, we have Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Cancelling Headphones.

    About the Headsets

    There are two models of Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Cancelling Headphones that have been released to offer this groundbreaking technology; one comes under the model number 3 and the other under number 2. Why did I list the models backwards? Because this is the order in which they were released to the public. Though these two models are similar, they do have major differences that can entice unique music-listening preferences.

    Quiet Comfort 3, the first model to be released from the company, garnered instant popularity when released because of its comfortable on-the-ear design and lightweight fit. Some say that this headset feels so comfortable on that they would rather wear the headset than nothing on their ears – now that’s comfort! Of course, that’s only the beginning of the benefits you receive with this headset. These Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Cancelling Headphones are compatible with a Bluetooth wireless kit, which is one of the greatest benefits you can garner from a headset because it allows you to move around your home freely without having to worry about moving too far before becoming unplugged from the listening source. But of course, the greatest benefit is the ability to listen to music on the plane or at home without having to worry about annoying noises interrupting the quality of your listening experience. You can connect your headset to your MP3, CD, DVD, or even an in-flight movie on the plane and enjoy the sounds without the interruptions.

    Whereas the model 3 headset offers an on-the-ear design, the model 2 headset offers an over-the-ear design, which for some works even more effectively in reducing the amount of outside noise that can affect what is playing through the headset’s speakers. Using the same technology as the previous model, these Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Cancelling Headphones offer award-winning performance for even the pickiest listener. Because of its Triport acoustic headphone structure, you get a lifelike audio performance that sounds so clear that you may think the artist is playing live in your home. Like the previous model, when your done listening to your music, you can fold the headset flat then store it in the accompanying carrying case for easy travel. An in particular, this headset works so well to block out noises that without the use of the in-ear technology that affects the music, you can still enjoy peace because of the headset’s design.

    Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Cancelling Headphones, whether model 3 or model 2 can provide excellent comfort, sound quality, and of course the technology that allows you to reduce the unwanted noises both inside and outside of the headset. So the next time you decide to take a long plain ride, don’t dread the engine noises and shrieking children, because with Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Cancelling Headphones over your ears, you’ll forget that you were ever on an airplane at all.
