Bose blows. Those $140 headphones would sell for more like $40 if they said anything besides Bose on them.
Get some sennheiser’s, or shure.
Or if you dont mind some seriously old skool open headphones, look into getting some grado’s. Even the lower models sound better than most shure’s or sennheiser’s…

Those $140 headphones are that price because their ‘bread and butter’ low end products fund all of the crazy research (like the car suspension research they kept secret for what… over 20 years?) they do. Doesn’t bug me either way because I don’t buy the stuff but can still benefit from the research. 
I was less than impressed with the all bose speaker surround sound setup my dad built a few years back. I have yet to experience something bose that I said “wow that sounds good”. Every time I put on my Grados (and I’m not talking high end Grados, my SR80s were $99.99) I get that wow feeling. Bang for your buck you can’t go wrong with the SR80s, you just need to try them and be sure they are comfortable for you. Tension on the headband can be adjusted but still some people just can’t get comfortable with them.
I know here in Rochester The Stereo Shop has them with their home audio stuff (Henrietta location). They have the SR60, SR80, and SR125 last I checked. Bring a CD in and try them out along with all of the many headphones they have set up there.
