What should I get? Shure SE530, Bose QC3, or Sony digital noise canceling headphones?
Lately i’ve been saving some money to get a nice or even the best head/earphones I could find. Now I can’t decide between these 3, all expensive but the sony and bose is noise canceling, while the Shure is sound isolating. Sony is over the ear, Bose is on-ear, Shure is in-ear. PLEASE HELP!
Well, I like using the best things in life. Off course not to the level of extravagancy, still i would say that it all depends upon ones own passion and level of understanding the beauty underneath. Too philosophical that was…….
Anyways its not only you who got confused in this selection, I already have spent good time now in understanding the crux. I appreciate your concern.
Bose QC3 = Sennhieser PXC450, both are good but specifically been made keeping in the mind the frequent travelers. I have tried both but not get happy with the results. Bose QC3 looks cool while wearing and will be best for anyone who get easily satisfied with the added punch and treble in the song. But think it like, Do you really need that much of isolation from outside noise, specially if you spend some parts of your day in quiet env., coz they are nothing but mere over publicize products. They both basically don’t concentrate upon the best quality sound, but on cutting the outside noise.
Shure SE530 = Sennheiser IE8, both good but shure se530 definitely is the one that gives the most decent quality of music to your ears till date. And on that they both cut the outside noise remarkably, without electrical circuitry like in case of Bose QC3 or Sennheiser Pxc450.
If you like listening your music in its purest form, without creating much fuss around then shure se530 pth is the best choice, else Bose Qc3 is good as well……… cool looks.
