Full Spectrum Noise Reduction

They're the best Bose around-ear headphones, period. QuietComfort 15 headphones feature exclusive Bose advancements in noise reduction technology. You hear less noise and more of your music and movies-with quality sound and a long-lasting comfortable fit. You won't find this combination of benefits in any other around-ear headphone.

Bose technology at work
Engine roar fades to a whisper

Within every pair of QC®15 headphones, advanced electronics use microphones inside and outside each earcup to sense the sounds around you-and reduce the noise. Proprietary ear cushion technology blocks some of the noise before it even reaches your ears. Together, these Bose innovations add up to a more enjoyable listening experience.

Relax with music - or without it

QC15 headphones also feature proprietary signal processing and TriPort® acoustic headphone structure for more lifelike sound-including deep low notes-from small, lightweight earcups. And when you'd rather relax without music, switch on QC headphones to simply reduce the noise around you, wherever you are.

Take calls. Take control

QC15 headphones come with a cable customized for select Apple® products. A three-button remote and microphone let you take calls on your iPhone and control music functions on other Apple devices. You can also purchase a mobile kit that lets your QC headphones work with other cell phones, too.

Welcome to a better-sounding world
Switch between calls and music with a press of a button

When you fly with QC15 headphones, engine roar fades to a whisper. When you listen at home or at work, fewer distractions get in the way of your music. And when you want to stay connected, calls are just a button-press away. QC15 headphones continue to give you more of what you want to hear, and less of what you don't.

QuietComfort 15 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones Highlights
  • Significant noise reduction across a wider range of frequencies. Proprietary Bose innovations use microphones both inside and outside each earcup to sense and reduce the sounds around you.
  • TriPort acoustic headphone structure, another Bose exclusive, features tiny vents in the earcups to enable a tonally-balanced audio performance-including reproduction of deep, low notes-from relatively small and lightweight headphones.
  • Active equalization electronically tunes the headphones' frequency response, enabling outstanding audio performance.
  • Interchangeable audio cables, one for general use, and one just for select Apple products, offer greater convenience than permanently connected Y-cables.
The inline remote puts control right at your fingertips
  • Inline microphone allows for hands-free iPhone conversation and access to certain voice applications, such as VoiceOver and Voice Control, in other Apple products.
  • Inline three-button remote switches between calls and music, and controls volume, track selection and voice applications on select Apple products.
  • Advanced ear cushions use new materials in a proprietary design to establish a critical acoustical seal-helping to further reduce noise while providing a comfortable fit.
  • Fold-flat earcups rotate 90 degrees for easy storage and portability in the included case.
  • Slim carrying case helps protect headphones and accessories during travel.
Apple cable compatibility

The QuietComfort 15 inline remote and microphone cable is compatible with iPod nano (4th, 5th and 6th generation), iPod classic (120GB, 160GB only), iPod touch (2nd, 3rd and 4th generation), iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPad and iPad 2, and Macbook (unibody) and Macbook Pro. The remote is supported by iPod shuffle (3rd generation). Audio is supported by all iPod models. Requires latest iPod software.

Amazing product, worth breaking open the piggy bank

Amazing product, worth breaking open the piggy bank
I purchased my Bose headphone from a Bose store more than 3 years ago.I was working in an open space at that time. People were picking up their phones, talking, having a break, eating something, opening a can, eating chips, leaking an ice cream, mumbling, etc.Staying focused was somewhat tough (i.e.: I was going crazy).Before buying this headphone, I had been using my in-ear earbuds for years or just soft foam earplugs to reduce the noise around me (you could call this "passive noise canceling" I guess).First, I tried the Bose headphone of a colleague, OFF then ON. I just couldn’t believe it. Most of the noise around got canceled or softened. Of course, you can still hear people talking, but most of the annoying sounds are diminished.Frustration Alert: You may find yourself hearing even more annoying noises after pulling off the headphone (for example, the A/C being as loud as a truck for a few minutes).Pros: - Reduce the noise around drastically, but not entirely. Ain't no magic. - AAA battery, not proprietary batteries. You can change them as much as you want. I always carry 4 batteries in my bag. I charge them as soon 2 of them are empty. - The microphone is at the upper end of the wire, right next to the mouth. Avoid speaking alone for a few minutes before realizing that nobody can hear you. - The jack connector is not sealed into the headphone. You have a spare cable that you can use if the first one has a defect (also a 3-pole). - The cable is not bolted into the headphone. This means that if you listen to music on your laptop, forget that you have the headset on your ear and start to walk, the cable will pop off without splitting. This happened to me countless times! - Case. Very good quality, hard and sturdy with an extra pocket to tuck in other stuff.Cons: - No volume control on the cable.Notes: - After all this time of being used every day, the "gum" inside of the headphone starts to peel off. This doesn't prevent me from using the headphone though. See my picture.- Also, worth mentioning that the lid protecting the battery is harder to open over time. I have always struggled with it anyway.​
