Default Bose QC15 headphones

Bought myself a pair of these a couple of weeks back. Already got a set of Bose in-ear ones and on-ear ones too but wanted a set that will drown out the drone when I'm on a plane.

They're superb ! Don't need to have the Ipod on flat out any more, all you can hear is the music. No background noise, nothng. Even drowns out her moaning....

Anyone else got any ?

My dad and I both got a pair of the QC3 headphones from the states a number of years back, tell ya what the trip back was BLISS

Best headphones ever. Their customer support is awesome too, no questions asked swap for new if you have a problem.

I personally use these for DJing and they have amazing sound quality, although a little heavy! http://www.htfr.com/more-info/MR137739

A friend uses these which are much lighter, sound quality is excellent and are superb value for money! http://www.htfr.com/more-info/MR27679

I even use mine when mowing the lawn and they are good enough to drown out the noise of a petrol mower so that you can listen to the music in comfort, they are just the absolute dog's bollocks.

Getting off a flight, you feel completely refreshed, it's not until you have these that you realise how tiring the droning of engines actually makes you feel .

Is there much difference between the QC15 and the QC3 headphones?

I was thinking about getting a set shortly.
