Bose On Ear v Monster Beats HD
Mon, Aug 15 2011, 10:26PM
I'm looking to get a pair of On Ear Headphones as the Sure in ear ones just aren't comfortable enough or good enough quality for long journeys.
I have a budget of up to £150 and the Bose OE £120 and Monster Beats HD £140 look good all rounders for sounds and comfort. I know the Grado SR80i will sound better but i want them to look decent too and be lightweight and comfortable.
Has anyone tried these 2 out and should i be looking at anything else?

I have the Beats Solo HD and Bose AE2i and would choose the Bose over the Beats every day of the week no matter what i'm listening to, better sound and more comfortable.





Not heard the Monster Beats, but I have the Bose OE and the Grado SR80i. Yes the Grado sound better ultimately and they have a very different sound to the Bose. But the Bose are very very good and I'm more than happy with them for usage out and about.
