If Dad needs a break, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones are the ultimate way to tune out everything he doesn’t want to hear and enjoy all the things he does. ZDNET headphone reviewer Jada Jones says Bose’s latest release easily tops competitors in the noise-canceling and comfort department, as the name QuietComfort suggests, and Bose improved the QC Ultra’s soundstage with this model, offering a more profound, fuller bass response.
The vegan leather ear pads have perforations for better breathability, decreasing the likelihood of these headphones making your ears feel hot. Jones says that even after hours of wear, it’s easy to forget you’re wearing the QC Ultra on your head — they’re that comfortable.
Review: Bose QuietComfort Ultra
“The QC Ultra’s noise-canceling is the best I’ve tried in any headphones, as the ANC offers you protection from low, middle, and high-pitched droning noises like a lawnmower, car engine, or running refrigerator. Unlike other ANC headphones, the QC Ultra do a great job at diminishing light conversational noises, making them a great companion for people working in public spaces, like a library or coffee shop,” Jones says.
The QC Ultra is expensive, retailing at $429 and remaining over $350 even with seasonal discounts. However, it makes an excellent gift for a dad who may not otherwise purchase it for himself.
