Im looking for a gift for my girlfriend for Valentines day and am wondering if a pair of Bose Triports would be the ticket. As some of you might know i recently posted on here about how i needed replacements for my Sony MDR-D55's and i got a set of Sony MDR-D777LP's that so far i am fairly impressed with, though they do have low bass.
Anyways she loved my D55's because of the feel of them, and refuses to give up my new set of D777's, and since we are planning a summer long trip to Europe this summer i figured her own headphones like the ones mentioned would be good on the plane and on trains.
I have never been really impressed with Bose, i think they (some might say Sony as well) sell an inferior product for twice the price. This is my person opinion, i guess im just brand loyal to Sony (dont flame me in the post, that is what PM's are for.. lol).
So long and the short of it, are they worth $150? I would get her another set of D777's but thought i might venture out of the Sony world and see what else is offered.
Thanks for any advice...!
