I know the quietcomfort 3 has built-in rechargeable batteries however I much prefer the over-ear style of the 15's..

Standard headphones will do just fine. With that, Bose products are generally overpriced, and with some searching you'll be able to find some headphones that cost significantly less with better sound quality. Yes, a lot of rechargeable batteries are 1. Look for parts designed for cameras. Even saying that, I'm not a big fan of anything that eats batteries.

If you don't need the ANC, I'd look at something else and this isn't even getting into "should you buy Bose products".

The Bose AE2 isn't a terrible part, provides some isolation, and doesn't eat batteries if you want a Bose product. I'd look at Sennheiser and Sony; maybe Audio-Technica as well. Kenwood if you don't mind spending a bit more and waiting a few weeks for shipping. Generally I heard very good things about the quietcomfort 15, people mostly complain about the price.. Anyway, I do plan to use them at work where I am sitting in a room full of computers, so noisecancelling will be important to me.

I already have a few sennheisers etc. I'm interested in hearing from quietcomfort owners who use them with rechargable batteries, I need to make sure that will work for me to buy them thanks.

They're generally considered terrible headphones. You should probably look at getting a sealed headphone, which will block out audio decently. The Audio Technica M50 will also do the job, though maybe not block out quite as much sound.

Quote: andreasb said:. Click to expand A decent pair of in-ears might also be a good consideration; they'll block quite a bit of noise. What Sennheiser headphones do you already have? I've got a pair of sennheiser pro, i also have a pair of in-ear shure ones, the shures blocks out pretty much all noise but hurts the ears after a while..

I am surprised there is so much bose hate on here, they do seem a bit overpriced, however like I said, if they are good noisecancelling wise I don't mind spending a bit of cash on them. To me actual sound quality is secondary. Joined Apr 5, Posts Likes I just put my rechargeable battery in my QC15 and it works fine Can't talk about the battery life for using rechargeable though.

I use QC15 mainly on flights, the 40hrs battery life using regular battery is good enough for me. Get this manual by email Other manuals of this product. AM Rev. Need help? Post your question in this forum. Be aware of how these sounds vary in character, so you can recognize them as needed.
