I'm testing my new headphones. My trusty 15-year-old Sennheiser was in need of replacement and I decided to splurge and get noise cancelling headphones this time. Since the noisy season will start officially next week with King's Day it was time to order them.
I decided to go for the Bose QuietComfort 25. When I saw them I was slightly worried, since they are a lot smaller than I'm used to and I was afraid my earrings would get squashed. But they are exactly the right size, they fit right around my ears and the legs of my glasses don't feel squashed against my head either (though the real test will be how it feels after wearing it for several hours).
I had read complaints about the sound quality, not enough bass, but it sounds fine to me. The sound of my computer is completely blocked as soon as I switch on the noise cancelling, even without music on. The real test will be this weekend (when the cafes turn their music up) and next week with King's Night and Day.
