And all Bose products, which have always seemed egregiously overpriced to me. AFAICT, their noise cancelling headphones still have by far the best noise cancelling. If you work in a noisy environment or fly frequently, they're amazing. If your primary concern is audio quality in a normal or quietish environment, buy cheaper headphones (or I suppose more stylish ones, if that's your jones). I actually just got a pair of very expensive Jabra Evolve 80 headphones ( http://www.jabra.com/Products/PC_Headsets/Jabra_EVOLVE__Seri... ) primarily for their mic. The noise cancelling is dramatically worse than Bose and the headphones make me look dramatically stupider because of the mic. But clients can hear me better so that's a net win.
