Product Description

Product Description

Genuine Bose® in-ear headphones tips--manufactured, shipped and sold by Bose through our Amazon storefront. These contoured, soft silicone tips are compatible with all versions of Bose in-ear headphones, including TriPort® IE.

A different and better fit
Unlike most earbuds, Bose in-ear headphones are designed to be worn comfortably for extended periods of time. Instead of using a bud shape that must be pressed into the pressure-sensitive ear canal, our audio engineers developed innovative, contoured tips that rest naturally in the outer ear. The result is a more comfortable, unobtrusive fit, and improved sound delivery.

5.0 out of 5 stars required listening..., May 30, 2009

By	JDubYa - See all my reviews

This is exactly what I needed after I lost the pack of earbuds that came with the headphone "speakers". I call them that because they sound like regular speakers in your ears- but - they don't sound as good if you don't have the correct earbud on them. So, order up...

3.0 out of 5 stars A close fit, but no cigar., April 28, 2009

By	Nowhere Man (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews

I'll admit that I got my Bose earbuds secondhand, so I didn't get any help in figuring out how exactly they work. I assumed they were like other low-end earbuds, only about four times more expensive.

However, after a lot of poking around and uncomfortable attempts, I found out that unlike a traditional earbud that is lodged in your ear canal to inject sound directly into your brain, the Bose buds are designed to sit in the outer ear lobe and just gently guide sound to your appreciative ears. It makes a lot of sense in theory, but I found the same problem with these earbuds I found in the standard-issue iPod headphones: My outer ear is lacking any sort of cup-shaped region for them to rest on!

So the sound is great, but the buds don't fit in properly and frequently need adjusting. Perhaps the large size will work better, but I'd recommend trying the buds on in a Bose store before buying, just so you know if it's the kind of fit you'd like.

5.0 out of 5 stars the great buy, April 25, 2009

By	A. Mullins ""the proud saver"" (Scottsdale, AZ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I went on amazon to shop for both Bose earphones (retail in any store and magazine is $99 but I paid $44 plus bought extra ear pieces at a cut rate) I love them...and "yes" they were brand new in the hard plastic.
Amazon sales rock! ~the proud saver
