> Bose QuietComfort ANC Headphones on Sale on Amazon for Prime Big Deal Days
Virtually identical to the QuietComfort 45, which were favorably reviewed by our own William Jennings, the new QuietComfort model is available in a selection of limited edition colors, with more colors just added. The Cypress Green, Moonstone Blue, Blue Dusk, Chilled Lilac, Sandstone and White versions are available for $199 (41% off) while the basic black version is selling for a tad more at $229 (34% off).
Will praised the QC45 for its industry-leading active noise cancellation (ANC) effectiveness, solid mechanical design, excellent acoustic isolation and long term listening comfort. While he found the treble response slightly livelier than his preference, a small adjustment to the EQ in the Bose headphone app dialed in the sound to his liking.
Will found the Quick Charge feature rather handy; a 10 minute charge gave him about 2-3 hours of actual playing time. A fully drained pair of QC45s required 2.5 hours of charging to deliver its full rated 24 hours of playback time. The QuietComfort headphones come with a 42-inch audio cable with in-line microphone and straight 3.5mm plug and 2.5mm plug, a 12-inch charging cable (USB-A to USB-C) and a zippered storage case.
At $350, the QuietComfort headphones remain one of the top performing ANC headphones. At $199, it’s a no-brainer.
Price may vary if/when Amazon runs out of stock, but we expect pricing to go back to normal tomorrow when the two-day Prime Big Deal Day sale ends. Crutchfield is also matching the sale price today:
