Bose In Ear Headphones

I've just ordered the above from QVC and wondered if anyone else has them and can give me some feedback on what they are like. I'm particularly interested in how the three sets of ear moulds fit different sized ears. to date I've never found an in ear phone that I have found comfortable.

They looked impressive and I'll have the 30 day money back guarantee, so there's no risk.

Re: Bose In Ear Headphones

I believe the Bose here like other canalphone makers just take a guess on the average size of small, medium and large ears, although the Bose tips seem to be different to those used by Sony, Panasonic, Sharp, Creative, Sennheiser.... dunno if I've missed anyone out

Myself I get a reasonable fit with medium with my HJE50s, though I was never happy with the fit until I moved on to IEMs

Re: Bose In Ear Headphones

Not sure if it's online but the latest issue of Computer Shopper reviews them and only gives then one star - they say sound is really poor - not sure how reliable this is though.
