Bose hearphones availability
« on: July 12, 2024, 07:48:15 pm »
I read the positive comments on the Bose Hearphones however I’m not finding a source for new device. Only refurbished. Anyone know where to procure.

Thanks for posting your question on the ANA Forums, Smithair.

Unfortunately, I don't believe that you can purchase any new Bose Hear Phones from a vendor any longer.  I think they came out in March 2018.  When a technology is older than six years, there are usually newer and better technologies that come on to the market, and the older ones are no longer available.  It used to be sold on Amazon, but is no longer sold there.  I don't believe it is even available on the Bose store any longer.

You might be able to find some devices which have been refurbished or some used ones on eBay.

There are some promising new devices which are supposed to hit the market this year which may be much better than the Bose Hear Phones.

Thanks again for posting your question!

Best Wishes,
Don

I still use the hear phones by Bose. They work better than my cross hearing aids. Through the app I am able to transfer all sound from deaf ear to hearing ear along with bass, treble, and volume. If you can find a refurbished I would definitely give them a try. The negative is, they are clunky and wearing them, people assume you are listening to music instead of them.

I googled the Bose hearphone and yeah they look clunky. I'm now SSD and would like to know what are you guys using right now? Though over the last 3 years I have adapted already without using any but thought just to give a try something if it will make a difference.
