I had QC25, $300, needs fucking piece of paper to be put into ear cup to work. Bose is a rip off. Just look into this vid - 40000 views of how and where to put piece of paper into your $300 headphones - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OYva0hOW0Q
Audiophiles rag on Bose pretty hard. It's easy to see why if you look at their product line. They have home theater systems, but all of them use tiny plastic cube speakers that trade sound quality for unobtrusiveness. They have soundbars and waveboxes. Bose 901's are arguably their "flagship" audiophile product, but these are designed to bounce additional sound off your walls to make your room sound like a concert ha…
But I agree with you about the audiophiles. I would never buy Bose speakers for anything other than a desktop PC.

The description says that he slept while wearing the headphones so I suppose damage should not be that surprising. Since when 40k YouTube videos became the gold standard for anything? I was one of the group which said Bose are overpriced but my work has open office layout and it gets really loud.

I have Superlux hd668b - I think they were like $40 USD, and they sound definitely better than QC25. But... they are not noise cancelling, they look derp and press on my ears. Actually majority of quality headphones appear to have awful designs with curled cables and thick bands that makes people look at you.
This became the Bose Ride seat for commercial trucks.

Koss PortaPro. They leak sound like crazy and look like they came out of a time machine from the 1980's. But they're cheap and they sound great.
I've owned 3 pairs of these. They're great for walking around in traffic or when you otherwise need to hear everything around you, and really do sound excellent for the price. All of mine died really fast though! The cable is so thin and the connector tail bit so short and inflexible, that plugging them into a phone and putting the phone in a trouser pocket daily is a 6-month death sentence tops.
