Bose Soundlink Bluetooth On-Ear Headphone II-Bose who staked his claim on the title with the new SoundLink Wireless Around-Ear Headphones II, which comes in black or white for $ 280, £ 240 or AU $ 379.
Bose earlier, AE2w over-ear now called Around-Ear SoundLink Bluetooth, Bluetooth component is released only add to an existing wired headphones (AE2, which is now called SoundTrue Around-Ear). We provide high value in the model, but the Bluetooth module looks slightly grafted and does not make for a sleek design.
The new SoundLink, Around-Ear Headphones Wireless II did not have the Frankenstein quality and looks a lot like the Bose quality noise canceling headphones actively, QuietComfort 25. As you might expect from a headphone Bose Around-Ear Headphones SoundLink Wireless II has a very comfortable fit. Weighing in at a touch more than 7 ounces or 200 grams, it is lighter and has a luxurious, fitted ear pads. Although it does not look very sturdy, said Bose headphones were tested in the laboratory to withstand the drops, bumps and grabs, and use of impact-resistant materials, including the "glass-filled nylon and stainless steel corrosion resistant." By comparison QC 25 weighs 6.9 ounces (196g), while the more compact SoundLink On-Ear Bluetooth headphones weigh in at 5.4 ounces (153g).
That is all of these models at the top of their class each provide comforts, and while these headphones do not have active noise cancellation headphones that generates sound waves that actually negate the noise of the exterior environment, the design around the ears either at work passively sealing out a lot of ambient noise The same when starting. The only problem is that like most headphones around the ears, your ears will be vapor in a warmer environment, but they work great as earmuffs in a cold state. Remote control buttons are well placed on the right earcup to answer the call, you should do to press the center control button, which also allows you to skip tracks forward and back when you play music. As in the ear Bluetooth headphones, Bose has equipped this model with two-way microphone system and something call Bose Adaptive Audio Adjustment technology, which automatically adjust the volume based on ambient noise levels. I also had no problems pairing the headphones with both iPhone and Android devices. Besides, I just had the hiccups wireless (there are some, but that's par for the course with Bluetooth).
Headphones also connect to a Bluetooth-enabled computer, although the sound does not seem good enough when I stream music from the iMac and MacBook Air. In contrast to QC25, this headphone folds flat but do not have a second hinge that allows it to fold and reduced footprint when stored in the included carrying case. That the case has a pocket for storing bring USB charging cable and headphone cable for use in case the battery dies and you want to listen to headphones in wired mode (a cable that does not have an integrated microphone, but it's a small omission). The battery can last for 15 hours, which is good enough to get you through the long haul flights, and has a fast-charge mode which gives time for 2 hours on a battery with only 15 minutes of charging.
When you turn on the headphones, a particular sound tells you how much battery life is left. He also helps guide you through the Bluetooth pairing process, and Bose has done a good job of smoothing the kinks Bluetooth. Headphones appeared to use Bluetooth 4.0 and supports the multilink technology, which means you can connect several devices at once and switch between them (you can only stream audio from one device at a time). NFC technology tap-to-pair is also on board (mobile Apple does not currently support this feature, but only on Android devices). But APTX Stream does not make a list of features. APTX should improve the quality of Bluetooth streaming but it is not clear how much impact it.

Achievement
Like I said, it is quite difficult to really express wireless headphones best sound for ears of all people and tastes different audio, but what I would say is that this is one of the Bluetooth headphones best at this time, although not necessarily for everyone ,
Clean and balanced sound with enough bass but not strong. You will not get a little extra crispness, sparkling, and depth you get from a really good pair of headphones wires, but Bose tend to focus on delivering a smooth, pleasant voice and this certainly fits that profile.
I compare it to the popular Studio Beats Wireless, Bluetooth headphone is more expensive to have some light noise cancellation. Beats have more bass, played harder, and a little more dynamic, but Bose is heard more clearly and have a slightly better stereo separation.
As with all the Bluetooth headphones, there are some digital processing is happening, and has been equipped with Bose headphones with active EQ and EQ optimized volume.
Volume is optimized by a useful EQ designed to make your music sound better at lower volumes. Often, when you lower the volume, you lose the bass, and Bose digital processing makes things more complete and more detailed sound at low volume. Meanwhile, Active EQ ensure incoming signal is complete and accurate and undistorted. The idea is to get a more perfect transmission without increasing any, bass, for example. The problem, of course, is that the quality of your digital files streamed to your headphones varied and Bose is doing his best to smooth it all and make it sound better.
As a comparison to the Bose SoundLink Bluetooth On-Ear headphones, a model that also sounds very good for Bluetooth headphones, but you get a little more complete, more open sound with this model, as well as better sound insulation. I will finish by noting that I liked the sound of the headphones when I connected the rope. There is no active or EQ EQ optimized volume and bass remain almost the same, but did not play a little harder while still maintaining smooth sound overall. In other words, if you do run out of battery and had to plug in, you do not really lose anything by going the route of the cable, which is not always the case with powerful Bose headphones.
