Bose QuietComfort 15 Headphones

Well, not that it's much difference in $$, but with the FX going south, I'm glad I bought them last week and not today .... I was going to wait until just before I was leaving (tomorrow).

Some available on AU EBay:

Used for ~A$175

Just bought them from Amazon. Thanks for the tip.

I've had this a few times on QF with different phones - surely a crappy QF issue and NOT a Bose problem.

Agree because they work fine everywhere else.

My QC 15's just arrived from Amazon. As above great price at $299 plus shipping. They are the latest model with the iPhone cable included. I was intrigued by the little business card holder in the case which includes business cards for the headphones. Will be trying them out on trip to LHR soon.

These are really great headphones. So clear and with excellent and tight lows. Tried F headsets with QF, TG, CX, UA and EK. Not even close. Get a pack of 2 or 4 Lithium AAAs as they will last a lot longer than the Energizer AAAs. Also learn to switch them off or the battery dies very quickly.

yes so was I. you are supposed to hand them out when someone admires you headphones!!!!

If Bose want me to market their product they can cough up with a cheque first!!!

Yeah I paid $280 usd in the baharmas with no Seles tax @1.06. You can get lucky occasionally.

Great headphones!!

Although hooked up to qf at low volume I get a light tapping noise, most strange.

Anyone get this?

This usually happens if you have the Hi/Lo switch setting (on the jack that connects to the headphones) on Hi. Put the setting on Lo when in the plane and it will disappear. (You will need to increase the volume level).

Switch it back to Hi when using them with your mp3 player, computer, etc.

I saw an ad for Bose QuietComfort 15 headphones in the August edition of Qantas Australian Way magazine.

I went to the Bose website to find they are $500. Delivery is $10 or $20 for the express option. Ouch! And they are out of stock.

So I did a little surfing and found them on Amazon.com for US$300 plus $39 delivery (guaranteed to arrive by Friday and I have a trip to BKK coming up). The cheaper delivery option was about $14. They have them in stock.

So I bought them from Amazon. Total cost to me A$324. Still damned expensive headphones but I would never have paid $500.

We are really getting ripped off with Aussie prices. I used the 28Degrees card too, so the Aussie banks didn't get to gouge me either.

Can you point me to where on amazon.com you bought them from that will ship to AU? I've tried to find it but every link I find won't ship to AU....
