Don’t allow life’s little interruptions to interfere with your enjoyment of the music that soothes you when you’re working, traveling, or simply relaxing. The Bose QuietComfort 3 Noise Cancelling headphones dramatically reduce unwanted distractions while providing the premium audio quality you expect from Bose. Connect these on-ear headphones to your CD, DVD, or MP3 player or even your desktop or laptop computer to enjoy listening to audio along with the benefit of noise reduction. You can even take advantage of Bose’s noise-cancelling technology without listening to music to help reduce ambient noise for better concentration.
Proprietary TriPort® headphone structure provides rich audio performance while keeping the headphone design compact and streamlined. The proprietary soft-cushion, on-ear design establishes a critical acoustical seal between the headphones and your ears. Unlike conventional, bulky noise-reduction headphones, Bose QuietComfort 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones are lightweight and comfortable and feature the on-ear design. Traditional, over-ear headphones are also available.
Whether you take them on a plane or to the office, your Bose QuietComfort 3 Noise-Cancelling Headphones will fold flat to store easily in the included carrying case to put into your briefcase. A single detachable audio cable gives you easy access to portable players, home stereos and in-flight entertainment systems; adapters convert the 3.5mm headphone plug to a 6.3mm home stereo plug or to fit dual-plug outlets. The audio cable can be removed when you simply want the benefits of noise reduction.
These headphones are powered by a rechargeable battery, included, which provides 20 hours of play.
