When you’re in the market for new headphones, choosing which ones to buy can often be a tedious and stressful endeavor. What brand do you go with? Do you want wired or wireless? What functionality is important to you? Even if you’ve been able to narrow your choices down to say “Bose wired headphones with an in-line mic” you still have a number of options to consider. That’s where I come in. I was recently asked to review three different Bose wired headphones, and here’s the lowdown on how they stacked up against each other.
