Make New York Post a Preferred Source I’m a certified headphone tester. I say this because I’ve been testing headphones for over 10 years now, even before I got my first job as a tech journalist.
That’s why I know a good pair of headphones when I see one, and the Bose QuietComfort Headphones are among my favorites. They’re currently on sale for 32% off, bringing their price down to just $169 for a limited time only.
I currently own the second-generation Bose QuietComfort headphones, and I love them for their lightweight design, striking color and all-around sound quality. The first generation delivers on many of the same features, including a lightweight design and all-day battery life.
They come with both Quiet and Aware modes, allowing you to customize the level of noise cancellation as you see fit. Plus, the adjustable EQ (which was one of my favorite features on the second generation) makes it easy to customize the sound to your liking.
There’s also an included audio cable, which means you can use them wired if they happen to run out of battery. Plus, with multipoint connectivity, you can connect to more than one device at once.
There are even on-device controls that you can use to toggle noise cancellation on or off.
If you’re looking for a pair of over-ear headphones that deliver a balanced soundstage and stellar noise cancellation that block out your surroundings, the Bose QuietComfort headphones are a good fit, especially at their current discount of 32% off.
Delivers powerful sound with personalized spatial audio and active noise cancellation for an immersive listening experience.
