Pros Broad Signal Response, Great Fitting
Cons Pricey
Recommended it? Yes

This is the time of all things MP3. Many vehicle manufacturers cater to iPod compatibility and more than a handful of electronics accessory suppliers and manufacturers devote a great amount of resources catering to the MP3 player compatibility. Among the throngs of manufacturers cashing in on the... Read full review »

Good sounding, not noise cancelling

Pros Nice clean balanced sound with clear highs and good bass. Open sound lets world in.
Cons Sizing grommets occasionally slip off, especially if you sleep with the earbuds in.
Recommended it? Yes

The Bose (TriPort IE) in-ear earbuds provide nice sounding, bass-rich sound without "hissy" highs. If you haven't destroyed your ears from listening to music too loud, then you should like the quality of sound coming from these large drivers. The earbuds do NOT provide an airtight seal, but just... Read full review »

They're terrific

10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Good, crisp sound, better bass than other earbuds. Comfortable, natural feeling.
Cons Highs aren't as good as top-quality headphones or speakers.
Recommended it? Yes

I've gone through several different earbud products and these are the first that come close to what I've been hoping for. They're not perfect, but for $99 and compared to the others I think they're just fine. They're not noise reducing, but they don't claim to be, and when I'm out walking I want... Read full review »

Pros Good sound, good case. Bass much better than any other type I have tried.
Cons Those darm earpieces....and now Bose is out of stock..

These buds are duds

bybuyingmaniac Dec 11, 2006
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros good sound quality
Cons Not a snug fit, not truly sound isolating
Recommended it? No

Small, medium or large ear plug adaptors, it doesn't matter. I tried all three sizes and got the same result. The buds weren't a snug fit and I was constantly repositioning them in my ears. Outside sounds easily leaked through, sometimes so loudly that I couldn't hear the music I was trying to... Read full review »

Best Buds I've had

Pros Noise Cancellation, fit perfectly, great bass, clear highs and lows.
Cons Can't find any at the moment.
Recommended it? Yes

I just received these TriPort IE earbuds for my birthday. They come complete with 3 size fittings. After fiddling around with the different sizes I settled on the large. I use my headphones with my iPod during work in order to eliminate outside distractions. These certainly fit that bill. No... Read full review »

Pros Great fit, great sound.
Cons The cable is a bit stiff and grabby. Silicone earpieces slip off.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought these headphones on spec from a Bose flyer that arrived in the mail just before Christmas 06. They were purchased as a gift for my wife in the hope that the improved fitting system designed by Bose would help her use her iPod more comfortably.

They more than surpassed my hopes... Read full review »

Pros EXCELLENT SOUND.. COMFORTABLE
Cons EAR COVERINGS LOOSE
Recommended it? Yes

UNBELIEVABLE SOUND!!!! I FEEL LIKE I AM SITTING IN A RECORDING STUDIO WHEN LISTENING TO MY MUSIC WITH MY IPOD...
BRAVO TO BOSE FOR MAKING A PRODUCT THAT REFLECTS THEIR EXPERTISE IN THE AREA OF PLAYING MUSIC TO ITS FULLEST BUT IN A TINY SIZED ITEM.

THE ONLY FAULT THAT I FIND WITH THEM... Read full review »

Cons loose fit, not sound isolating

I love Bose--I have around ear noise-cancelling headphones that are wonderful. I have a lifestyles system that rocks. I love to exercise and enjoy my music to the fullest, so when these in-ear buds came out, they were at the top of my Christmas wish-list. I've had them for seven months now and... Read full review »

Cons These headphones tend to fall out of your ears often.

My experience with these headphones was more than pleasurable. They have a great sound. I have never had a problem with the cord tearing or ripping. Read full review »
