Previous Noise Reducing Headphones

Bose QuietComfort Headphones

The Bose QuietComfort Headphones (also now known as the QC1) was the very first headphones released by the company (1989). The Bose QuietComfort Headphones retailed at $299.

The Bose QuietComfort Headphones came with

an external noise controlling mechanism, which enables the control of both volume and background noise cancellation.; Bose's patented Acoustic Noise Cancellation Technology; Active Equalization requiring power to improve the sound quality and counteract the effects of active noise cancelling.; A carry case for the QuietComfort Headphones;

While the headphones were somewhat oversized, they were extremely lightweight.

There is a trade in program for previous owners wishing to upgrade to the new QuietConfort 2 SE for $188.00

Bose QuietComfort 2 Headphones

To address some of the concerns with the QuietComfort Headphones, in 2003, Bose released their successor, the Bose QuietComfort 2 Headphones (also now known as the QC2). Like its predecessor, the QuietComfort 2 Headphones retailed at a suggested price of 299 USD in the US and approximately 480 USD in Europe (£275).

Changes from the original QuietComfort Headphones include:

TriPort headphone technology giving improved bass and treble; Lower noise floor; Improved acoustics; Removal of the battery box

On-off switch on the right earcup; Collapsable one-wire attenuator to control the noise cancellation level (from two levels);

; Use of only one AAA battery inside the right earcup, instead of two AA batteries in the former battery box; Foldable form-factor; Smaller carrying case; Single Cord that can be detached if the user doesn't want to listen to music;

Previous Aviation Headsets

Bose Aviation Headset Series I

The Bose Series I Aviation Headset is introduced in 1989 as the first commercially available Active Noise Cancellation headset specially designed for pilots, also used by the United States Air Force.

Initially, the Bose Aviation Family were not to be sold to civilian markets, since this is considered to Bose as a military application.

Although the Aviation Headset used active noise reduction technology, the headphones relied more upon the clamping force of the headphones and other passive noise reducing technology. Also Bose used a 9-pin connection instead of the commonly used 6-pin comm. connection.
