Hi Guys

Just wondering if any one had any reccomendations for the above. I will be travelling to the Phillppines, Australia and Spain this year and thought i would invest in a set of noise cancelling headphones.

I was looking to get a set of BOSE quiet comfort 3 heapdhones (second hand) around £150 ish maybe cheaper if i can find a set

Anyone heard the quality of these or recommend others?

I'd it in mind that Sennheisers generally > Bose.

See here though, for people's views:

Just make sure you look at the tech spec of the headphone as opposed to price tag/name.

Also take into consideration the main type of music you listen to and whatever eq capabilities your device has.

I have some Wesc headphones that sound wise are on a par with some Bose I've had, although the build finish isn't as good they're sturdy, but if I was travelling all over the place I'd want something that I could stuff into a backpack and wouldn't be the end of the world if they got nicked, etc.
