Looking to get a new set of headphones for my iPhone. I normally just use the stock Apple ones but they fall apart pretty quickly.
I had a look around some stores this weekend and had a play with the Bose QuietComfort 3's and was pretty impressed with the noise cancelling, although the price was pretty out of my range I have found them for around £150 on ebay.
What I am looking for is:
1) Headphones, not earphones. Don't like shoving things in my ear, as it isn't often that comfortable. The pad needs to be small though, the pad on the QC3 was a pretty good size I thought.
2) Good noise cancelling without leaking sound. I travel the tube most days so want to drown out any outside sound. I don't like blasting music in to my ears and I don't want to annoy other people with the sound.
3) Need to be able to have a remote on the cable that works with the iPhone so that I can use it to make calls.
I have a maximum budget of £150. I am really tempted by the QC3s second hand, but wanted to know if I could get better bang for my buck. Although admittedly I am no audiophile - hence how I have managed to put up with the Apple stock earphones for a while! Any help or points would be appreciated
