About the Bose® AE2i audio headphones
Engineered for performance. Designed for comfort.
Engineered for performance. Designed for comfort.
Whether you're kicking back at home or listening on the go, the Bose® AE2i audio headphones provide superior sound, extraordinary comfort, and a stylish design. The Bose TriPort® acoustic headphone structure lets the AE2i faithfully reproduce deep, full bass, clear highs, and smooth sound throughout the entire audio spectrum. Their performance can uncover subtleties in your tunes you may have never noticed before, even with long-familiar tracks — the delicate swish of brushes on a brass cymbal, or the reverberations echoing off the back wall in a concert hall.
Take calls. Take control.
Bose designed the AE2i specifically to work with select Apple® products. A three-button remote control built into the cable lets you conveniently answer and end calls, control music playback, and raise or lower the volume without having to dig your player out of your pocket. You can even enjoy hands-free conversations on your iPhone®, thanks to the remote's built-in microphone. The microphone also lets you take advantage of the voice control feature found on many of the latest iPhone, iPod® and iPad® models. Just hold down the button and say your command.
Take 'em along wherever you roam
You'll love the lightweight, compact design. The earcups feature soft cushions that fit gently around your ears so you can enjoy hours of listening at a time. And the headphone cord attaches to just one earcup, so you won't have to deal with tangles. A handy fold-flat design with a collapsible headband makes it easy to store and transport your headphones in the supplied carry bag.

Features
Overview: The Bose AE2i (around-ear) audio headphones let you hear smoother audio throughout the entire frequency range from full lows to clear highs. The Bose AE2i audio headphones can enhance your listening experience at home and on the go from your favorite audio sources, including your portable digital music player and laptop computer.
TriPort Acoustic Structure: The Bose AE2i headphones, with enhanced, proprietary TriPort acoustic headphone structure, deliver sound reproduction that many conventional headphones can't match. The TriPort technology allows you to enjoy deeper, richer lows from a compact headphone design. The TriPort design helps produce a quality audio performance from these light-weight, Around-Ear headphones.
Bose Acoustic Equalization: Bose acoustic equalization fine-tunes the frequency response of the around-ear headphones for exceptional audio performance for low, mid, and high frequencies.
Around-Ear Headphone Design: The Bose AE2i headphones feature a comfortable around-ear fit with pivoting, angled earcups. The Bose AE2i headphones feature soft cushions that provide an acoustic seal between the headphones and the user's head, enhancing both performance and comfort. The improved ear cushions, in both design and materials, give you a softer more comfortable feel. As a result, AE2i headphones can provide hours of comfortable listening.
Note: The AE2i do not offer active noise reduction.
Padded Adjustable Headband: The adjustable, cushioned headband has been redesigned to distribute weight more evenly across the top of the head. The sturdy design features soft cushion for added comfort. The adjustable headband allows approximately three inches of adjustment in length.
Detachable, Single Audio Cable: The 67" audio cable attaches on the left earcup for greater freedom of movement and less tangling; it detaches for convenient storage. The cable is terminated by an angled male 3.5mm connector which plugs into your audio device. The end that plugs into the headphones is a male 2.5mm connector.
Note: The headphones do not include a 1/4" headphone adapter.
In-Line Remote Control: The cable included with the AE2i headphones has an in-line remote control and microphone compatible with select Apple devices. The in-line remote provides basic music playback functions for your compatible iPod, iPhone, or iPad. The in-line microphone supports hands-free communication for your iPhone and initiates Voice Control on your compatible Apple device.

Quality people + Quality products = Satisfied customers. That's Crutchfield. Of my other purchases at Crutchfield this was my first Bose product. When connecting to computer push wire in far enough but not too far and lay back and enjoy. They sound great
