IMHO their worth every dime of it and they are made for portable
players. Target sells them and you can audition a pare for yourself.
They have a really good dynamic range which gives music that live
feeling people get when they hear live music. And the older you get,
the more high you lose assuming of course you don't play your music at
ear busting levels. <grin> Next time your visiting a Target Store check
them out. They are the only ones for that much money. They do have
cheaper models too that are made for portable players including the ear
buds but you can't listen to them first for obvious reasons. The ones
you can are over the ear models and are intended for listening to music
but not wile your walking around town.. As my wife says, when you put
those phones on, your in a world of your own. Yes I am dear. She likes
to relax by watching a little TV. I like to relax by listening to music
so to each their own. I do have to admit that at 65 years old I need to
go into settings and kick the treble up a little. To many years of
playing live music and being on the road. Oh well, I'd do it all over
again if I were young again!

If your just after good sound and aren't looking for something with
a built in microphone, Bose makes a really grate set of over the ear
phones for two hundred. They come with both a short and a long
cable with the standard 3.5 Mm plugs which connect to a short about
2 inches long cable coming out of the left ear cup. The cables can
be connected together to make a long cable. These phones are made
for portable players as well as iPhones. The phones fold to a
compact size and come with a nice zippered case. They are
light-weight and you can wear them for hours with no discomfort or
sweating. The cable that comes out of the left ear cup is thicker
and should pose no problems as it is made to support the dead weight
of all the cables. The cables act as an antenna for use with iPods
with a radio. I have both an iPhone 4 and an iPod Nano fifth
generation. The phones work well with the Nano's FM radio.
These are very good phones if your a keyboard player and your
recording your performances to a digital recorder and need to hear
the balance and bass content to get your mix just the right way.
The ear buds are very good but they aren't a match for the ear
phones which as I said are made for use with iPhones and iPads. The
model numbers change but the price remains the same and you can tell
by the description if these are the right ones because it says their
made for use with iPhones and iPads and other music players.
In my opinion, you would have to look pretty hard to find another
set of phones that offer grate comfort and even better sound.

Eric is right. The Bose headset is very comfortable, an the
audio
quality is excellent. The bass isn't boomy, and the treble isn't
peaky. The set comes with medium-sized covers already mounted
and
includes small and large covers. The little headphones do not
penetrate deeply into the ear canal. The complete model
number for
the in-line microphone and remote version is MIE2i.
