Bose QC20i (Earbud Noise Cancelling)

I'm considering picking up a pair of these. Anyone have any experience with these? Will the plug fit into my iPhone with a bumper case on the phone? If not, anyone know of an extension, etc.? (I hate taking the case off and on).

One of the better places to get headphone reviews is head-fi (link should direct you to the "in-ear" list. The one problem with the site is put best like this: discussing Bose there is like discussing Apple products here. Basically, they say Bose basically markets itself big, and the marketing costs are reflected in the price of the products, rather consistently giving you a product with less quality per dollar than the competing brands, which spend less on marketing. They should have reviews and alternative suggestions to just about any piece of on-head sound equipment you can think of.

Try again and let me know if that works. Should be fixed.

Link works. Thanks, looks like I have some reading to do.

I have klipsch noise canceling inner ear buds. They blow Bose out of the fricking water and were cheaper I think.
They are so comfortable I forget they're in there sometimes. Also, the sound quality is top notch, has microphone for my phone, and noise canceling is good as well.

Which model do you have? I didn't think Klipsch made any in-ear active noise canceling headphones.
To the OP, I'm in the market too and every review of the Bose QC20s I've read has said they're the best. Have a co-worker who uses them too and loves them.

I'm curious about the Klipsch as well.
I'm not sure about dropping $300 for the Bose, but everything I've read seems like Bose is the way to go. Saw some on Ebay for $240 (new - supposedly) and I'm thinking I may give them a try for $240.

I have the Kilpsch s4i and they suck for running. There's a hollow "thump" every stride and the linear remote weighs them down and tugs at the ear buds. I think they've updated them and I'll definitely forgo the remote next time I buy.

I have the Shure 215s and Jaybird Bluebuds and I like the Jaybirds better. Neither are active noise canceling but both do a good job at it passively when you get a good fit. The jaybirds are bluetooth but don't have the mic.
