Method 360 ANC - Foam Tip Replacements?

While I can't find stuff for "longer" ear tips, I did find foam ones. If you are having issues finding custom parts for the Method 360 ANC for being so new, you can look for parts that work with the Bose QC Ultra Earbuds, because they are very similar from a build point of view. (Licensed design fro

What are your favourite noise-cancelling headphones?

Bose qc 45 over ear and sometimes (when my hair is wet or I want to move my head more freely) bose qc ultra earbuds! I have them in this dreamy blue color, moonstone, and named them my moonicorns. Wish I knew how to remove the logo from the qc 45 though.

QC Ultra Gen 2 a good choice for someone switching from ear buds?

Ok so you have someone here who has been in your situation. I used to have AirPod pros in the past but moved to Bose QC Ultra Earbuds because I couldn’t get the AirPods to stay in. The Bose earbuds solved that problem nicely. But as you probably know, you can’t beat a really good pair of over-ears.

QC Ultra Earbuds 2gen vs Airpods Pro 3 - ear tips fit and comfort

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 1st Gen (not Ultra) here: the ANC is still slightly better with Bose compared with APP 3. Plus there is less hissing (nearly none) with Bose. Comfort-wise it is a perfect tie (at least with my ears). Sound quality: the Bose earbuds seem to sound a bit more musical, they are

Which earbuds have the best Noise Cancelling? (Airpods Pro 2, WF-1000XM5 or QC Ultra earbuds)?

I started wearing earbuds on noisy trains and tested AirPods Pro 2, WF1000XM5 and QC Ultra. For pure noise cancelling the WF1000XM5 impressed me most, QC Ultra is close and AirPods shine for ecosystem features. Sound wise Sony is balanced, Bose is warm and Apple is clear. I prefer the Sony fit and s

Px8 plane performance

The AirPod 2 you’re referring to have excellent ANC - My Bose QC Ultra earbuds still prove better ANC than the Apple but the Apple is an excellent earbud option however I don’t use earbuds often - only in specific cases when size is a factor.. My QuietComfort Ultras over ear is truly the best way to

Quietcomfort ultra earbuds problem

It would be better to buy replacement tips rather than to try and fix old tips that have been used for quite a while and such, since they are considered more as a consumable part of the earbuds that will always be prone to degradation with use and is user replaceable for that reason. It is something
