HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted October 19, 2020 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 As many of you know, I love testing out tech options. So it may be a surprise that my favorite way to listen to recorded music is to use a BT speaker (JBL Charge 3) and keep my processors on M. Excellent sound quality. Great bass. Of course, the whole room gets to enjoy the music too. Smile. With BTE processors like Sonnets and OPUS2, I love the around the ear BT headphones (BOSE QC35). Excellent audio. Terrific bass. Separate left and right audio for instrumentals. Super comfortable. @Nikki is a new BOSE QC35 fan! She showed us her headphones during our chat on Sunday. With Rondo style processors, I like CozyPhones wired flat stereo speakers (plug into headphone jacks) which attach to my Rondos without the headband. (This depends on magnet strength.) True separate left and right stereo audio for instrumentals. Great sound quality. Many times though I want to use wireless connections so I opt to use my favorite piece of tech....Artone 3 MAX BT neckloop. Excellent signal distance, comfort, ease of use. It is a blended mono audio signal. What is your favorite way to listen to recorded music?

HearPeers Heroes Mary Featherston Posted October 21, 2020 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 I listen to music in the car a lot, with the CIs on M. I have a pretty good car stereo.

Oh, lots. Classic rock, folk, bluegrass, jazz. Classical, but I tend not to listen to that in the car, it's generally longer than my commute and I don't think it would impress people if I insisted in sitting in the parking lot until Ma Vlast was done. The last couple of days I've had two alternating earworms: One Hand, One Heart from West Side Story (and I blame @Kyliefor that) and "It's a Long Way from Amphioxus". I can sing "Hatikvah" in Hebrew and "Suo Gan" in Welsh (really badly, I don't have a good singing voice) You?

The Bose Quietcomfort 35ii headphones are light around the sonnets and ear . Comfy I also like my little portable Sony SRS-XB10 to take anywhere and listen. At work I can't use headphones or speakers so I opt for the Direct Audio Input cable. I am a little behind on the M, T or MT I never really touch the keys to swap to T or MT... what is the most common uses you have for them?? Lets keep it in the topic so just wondering if you can use it for listening to music.

Yes, that's when I use MT, for the neckloop. Otherwise, not at all, really.

I play and listen to music in my mini studio with studio speaker. Also excellent. I use the Artone max 3 BT neckloop for phon calls in my iPhone with my Sonnets set to MT. Bass is weak though. I also use the Artone when walking or at grocery store i just bought the Bose QC35II and am quite impressed with the sound quality (Bass!) I am an Apple user iPhone iPad macs watch etc so I was slightly disappointed in Bose setup the excluded Apple. Only google and Alexa. However Siri working well so far. anyway, I am very pleased in the comfort and fit over my sonnets! great product! Bose has never ceased to fail me any idea how long the battery lasts?

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted December 5, 2020 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted December 5, 2020 @Jdashiell I love my BOSE QC35 headphones too! Batteries last about 20 hours of continuous use. They come with a headphone cable which can be used if the batteries run out. I love the bass!

Mary, you've got me interested in these..... had to get out my old headphones this morning that are somewhat 40 years old! 😂 Just to see if I could hear anything any good like.... My question concerning the Bose ones that you have.... are the cups big enough to go over the ear AND sonnet1 comfortably?? Also, as I wear a conventional hearing aid... are the two sides adjustable volume wise? the hearing aid is going to be the problem if anything as whistling can happen, I'm okay yet probably because of good fitting ear moulds. Also, is Bass good? Quote Link to comment https://forum.hearpeers.com/topic/5979-what-is-your-favorite-way-to-listen-to-recorded-music/#findComment-39099 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted February 10, 2021 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 @Mr-LJ Bass is terrific! I actually bought my first set of BOSE QC around the ear headphones when I wore HA. I went into a shop that had headphones on display to test and chose BOSE QC 2 (the newest at that time, 21 years ago!) because they did not cause feedback problems with my power hearing aid. My Sonnets fit inside the cup. I can wear my Sonnets BTE like usual or I can flip the Sonnets off my ear.... both ways they rest in the cup. If I flip my Sonnets off my ear, I need to be careful when removing the headphones. Volume adjustments impact both ear cups. Using the volume adjustment on your hearing aid or CI processor will impact just that side. Excellent music! True separate left and right instrumentals. Makes me feel like I am sitting in the center of the band. @Nikki purchased a set on sale a few months ago and she wears them during our HearPeer GoogleMeet chats. By using the BOSE app, 2 sets of headphones can share the same audio AND each person has independent volume control. We use that feature when we fly and watch a movie on one iPad.

HearPeers Heroes Mr-LJ Posted February 10, 2021 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 @Mary Beth Thank you! that's really encouraging, I'll have to find out where in my town or nearby, I can try before buy, probably wont be any time soon with lockdown. But 21 years! I think I might have missed out.

Demoniac Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 Headphones. Either my Shure SRH240 or in-ear Sony with bass boost.
