Should I buy Bose Headphones?

go for it! if u can find the new bose noise cancellation headset it will be better.

No. For the money on a set of Bose, you can buy a set from Beyerdynamic, Sennheiser, or Sony (or at least from their professional models) that will all offer superior performance for the price. As for the phones I'm using: Sony MDR-7509HD. This is a professional full-sized headphone that has excellent definition but also has remarkable efficiency; it is rated for a maximum of 3 watts yet is also easily driven by my iPod Nano. Another good Sony recommendation is the MDR-7506 or the MDR-V6. Another good headphone would be the Fostex T50RP, which are excellent professional headphones and can be found massively discounted to around $80 from their $200 MSRP. However, the Sony phones and the Fostex phones I described are all full-sized professional monitoring phones. They aren't quite as portable, but they are portable enough (at least for me), very comfortable and have excellent sound for the price. If you are looking for greater portability with good sound, however, then check these offerings from Beyerdynamic or Sennheiser: http://northern-america.beyerdynamic.com/en/consumer-products/products/trendline/mobile-headphones.html http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheiser/home_en.nsf/page.html?ReadForm&path=private_headphones_portable Another good portable headphone that will be better than Bose but won't break the bank is the Koss Portapro. Again, forget Bose!

if you could afford them, this would not be an issue! sorry/been there done that.
