Half the price but better than Bose? Heh.. think we found a winner!

ByCanis MajorisVINE VOICEon May 3, 2007

Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified Purchase

As everybody I'm sure, I debated between these and the Bose Quiet comforts. I have listened to all 3 and I myself like the over the ear better first of all, so the QC 3 were out ( and they pretty much compare evenly with the QC2 ). Now for the review of this product versus the QC2, my two remaining choices.

QC 2 - Excellent noise canceling, overall excellent balance in music tone. Good Highs, Good Mid-range but EXCELLENT bass. Downside is 300 dollars and very flimsy (cheaply made)

ATH-ANC7 -
1.SUPERB Noise canceling: Plane: W/O music - everything is muffled as if you were in a room by yourself but you could hear people outside the door. With Music: I had trouble hearing ANY Noise outside the music, It was almost completely silent...I could turn my Ipod down to around 25% of max volume and could hear every instrument and then some. These are BETTER than Bose as far as Noise canceling.
2. The High and Mid-range on these things are some of the best I've heard, and I am now comparing with the Bose as well as some Grado's. These demolish Bose in that area, you almost can FEEL the snare drums and the breath of the singer...honestly.
3. Bass - This is kind of the downside. The bass is there, but definitely is not as apparent as with the Bose. It has a nice muffled thumping sound, but is kind of back shadowed by the highs, but after adjusting the EQ you could hear it more, and it was fairly decent with no distortion. There was,however, some distortion with the very deep punchy bass on some songs, which is kind of annoying. You can't hear it that much enough to mess with the song, but it is there sometimes, I'm trying to guess whether it is my headphones or it just does this, but all in all the bass is a 5.5/10.
4. Comfort - Excellent comfort, more so than the QC 2. Has a more padded cushion, and it fits nicely over my ears.
5. Construction - Doesn't feel as flimsy as the QC 2's, and has a nice solid feel.
+++ Added Bonus - The Noise Canceling option runs off of AAA batteries ( one to be exact ) versus charging with the QC3s. This is SOOO much easier than charging, and the battery lasts for around 40 hours. I absolutely love this feature.

All in all I think you know which one i recommend. I bought these new for half the price of Bose, and I can't tell you enough how much these are actually better than the Bose. You will be saving money and getting better features along with it. If it sounds to good to be true - it isn't. I am the first reviewer of these and I went out on a limb buying these, now I come to you to let you know that you don't have ONE choice when it comes to noise canceling headphones. So I thank you for reading my review, and happy listening!

Don't be Fooled by 5 Year-Old Reviews!

ByBarbon July 10, 2012

Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified Purchase

I read those first couple of glowing reviews and thought, "wow! Better than Bose and cheaper too? Score!" I didn't notice that those reviews are 5 years old till now! Well, I just received the headphones, had them on 5 minutes, and the top of my head is still hurting. So, if I can stop you from wasting your time and money, here goes...

1) You WILL NOT get the ATHANC7 headphone. You will receive the substitution ATHANC7b (ah yes, notice that tiny, but all-important "b"). What does this mean? Well, apparently Bose got mad that Audio Technica ripped off their noise cancelling technology and had a lawsuit. So the "b" version is NOT noise-cancelling. I hoped to screen out crying babies on the frequent overseas trips I take. I tested it--I could hear 1) lightly thumping a cardboard box 2) scratching the bedsheet (and they are soft Egyptian cotton!) 3)the super-quiet ceiling fan. So,this is really 2 complaints...
*they do not cancel noise
*you will receive the CHEAPER "b" version even though you shell out extra $ for the original. The old "bait & switch" ploy. Don't be like me and say to yourself, "but *surely* since so many other reviewers have complained about the bait and switch they don't do it anymore? After all, I'm paying $20 more!" YES THEY WILL!! SUCKER!!

2) Other reviews mentioned they "expand horizontally". I did not have a clue what this meant, and didn't think it mattered as I have a small head anyway. Well,let me tell you what it means. It means they will get WIDER, but they will not get LONGER. So, if they don't reach down to your ears, TOO BAD. That is why my head is still hurting (15 minutes!) after I took them off--to reach my ears they had to smash the top of my head. If you have a WIDE, SHORT head they may work for you.

3) Over the ear? Not so much! I have seriously TINY ears. Tiny and FLAT on my head. The hole where your ear should fit is literally 3/4" wide. Your whole ear is supposed to fit in there. So your ears only fit in there if you lift them off your head and wedge them up under the padding. *Maybe* they would work if you are Shrek. But they didn't work with my freakishly small ears, so I don't know how they could possibly work for someone with big ears. I can imagine if I had left them on for five more minutes I would have sore ears to go with my sore skull.

4) Sound quality. OK, I'm a lady--I don't know woofer from tweeter. But I do know that I don't want to hear a loud, thumping bass listening to Adele. If you LIKE loud, thumping bass (in addition to sore top of head and crumpled ears), you just might like them. As for mine, they're going straight back tomorrow. The only positive thing I can say about them is they come with a nice carrying case and a AAA battery. I would say "you get what you pay for" but you don't even get that!

Audio-Technica Kicks Bose Butt

ByBruce Cordellon May 17, 2007

Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified Purchase

I owned a set of Bose Quietcomfort2 headphones for about 2 years. I really loved them, and they lasted about... 2 years. Within months of purchasing them, the plastic arms slowly crumbled, until each sidearm of the set was thickly wrapped in electrician's tape to keep the thing together.

Last week, one headphone cup broke off, and no amount of tape would any longer keep them together. I've never traveled with these, I used them only at my desk, I've never dropped them.

Even with such care, the plastic slowly crumbled away.

Is this planned obsolescence? For something that cost me $350 dollars, I'm very upset.

So, I ordered a set of these Audio Technica headphones. So far, they cancel noise slightly better than the Bose, and in fact allow me to go to a lower volume on music while I'm working at my desk.

I guess to really compare to the Bose, I'll have to give them a little time and see if they begin crumbling away after just 6 months as the Quietcomfort2 did. So, if that happens, I'll give another review. But for now, I'm happy.

UPDATE 09/05/08: I've fixed a few editorial errors on my review pointed out in comments. Also, I wanted to follow through on my promise to give another review: After more than a year of use, these headphones are still going strong without any of the degradation problems I encountered with the Bose set. I still highly recommend these.
