Bose TriPort In-Ear Headphones: Compare prices

By Mike Kobrin on 21/02/2007

More Bose reviews , RRP: AU$149.00

The good:

  • Strong bass
  • Good overall detail
  • Not intrusive in your ear canal

The bad:

  • Don't block out any noise
  • Fit doesn't feel quite as secure as advertised
  • Silicone tips come off very easily and pick up tons of dirt

The bottomline:

The Bose In-Ear Headphones are a hybrid set, falling right between regular earbuds and canalphones. They don't block out noise, but they do provide much more bass than stock earbuds -- almost too much, in fact.
