    Bose Invents Earbuds With Sound Customised For Your Own Ears!

    Bose introduced their QuietComfort Earbuds II at a press event on Wednesday, September 7th. The new earbuds are 1/3 smaller than their earlier version & weigh just 1/3 oz each. I spoke with John Rule, one of the lead engineers who worked on the Custom Tune technology which took 5 years to develop. I thought what they came up with was quite amazing. When you put these new earbuds on, they emit a “light chime” sound into the user’s ear canal which measures how the sound waves move inside that confined space. Then it customize the EQ of music to that user’s ears. It uses that data too to customize the way the phones cancel out ambient noise. Bose says its new earbuds cancel out the noise of the outside world better than any other consumer headphone, including over-the-ear models. Here's how they proved how they effective they are in noise reduction. While we were listening to music via the QC earbuds II in a demo room, we suddenly saw subway trains projected on the walls. A few seconds supered over the subway trains was 'Remove your CG II earbuds'. When I did that the noise of the subway was LOUD - and the earbuds had completely blocked it out. For outdoors, or conversation, you can switch to “Aware Mode”. There are 4 microphones, two in each earbud. There's 6 hrs of use with a full charge in the earbuds themselves. Plus 3 full charges from the case for a total of 24 hours. USB-C charging cable included. The Earbuds II come with three sizes of silicone ear tips, to better fit all ear sizes. They also include three sizes of “stabilizer bands,” a ring of soft silicon around the middle of the earbud that molds to the shape of your outer ear, holding the earbud firmly in place.  They'll be $299.00 & go on sale September 15th.  Triple Black ships 1st, Sand Stone ships in November.
