Will these sound better than my Bose Soundock Portable?

Yes. These are reference monitors that deliver pristine audio even for speakers within their range. They will have no problem outperforming a portable audio solution.

I'm not completely familiar with that model but my guess is yes. It should certainly be more open sounding.

They will only get as loud as the device you are listening to. I can plug them in my laptop, turn volume way up and hear clear without them in my head. The sound quality is fairly decent also.

No! They are stereo (crisp audio) and extremely comfortable. Sound quality vs computer/tablet is an added advantage. hs

Do not have a Bose, so cannot compare on that basis. However, am very satisfied with performance to date.

Well, probably. They sound really good, I use them for DJ ing and they are pretty clear, so unless your hearing is totally shot; They sound better than your tv speakers probably.

Buying The Bose system you asked about is a major mistake. There's much better performing systems that cost much less. It isn't a computer so it won't allow many options you may like. They want you to believe that the sound is better than anything else. You can duplicate the sound by increasing base on other systems. Bose won't allow you to tamper with the sound.

Yes, though I wouldn't say the Bose speakers are portable. I have several laptops which I use on my desk in my home office. The Bose speakers are nice companions to my work and my appetite for music, games, ... etc.

Yes. This unit has amazing sound. Best value in the category IMO, so much better sound than the Bose ... and more top-end volume, too.

Bose is superior but it depends on where you are using Philips Fidelio. I use it in my office and it sounds great, and the price is very reasonable. I would recommend it.

BOSE has better bass. I would like more bass to my DNA headphones... But def good for its price, really clear sound

Well, I would say if you want complete noise cancellation go with BOSE, but these do a pretty good job if you already have something playing, it's really hard to hear anything outside of your headset.

If you plan on using on the go, IEMs would serve better purpose. They will work, though are better suited to home amplifier purposes.

Yes, as long as u tune ur sound right. They will be the best sound u will hear.

Gosh, I hope not. I bought 3 pairs in different colors. Of course, that means none of them get used as much as if I only used one pair. If you're not a real light - handed person, wear these everyday all day, or under heavy conditions (rain or sand), I think I'd invest in a heavier, more expensive pair. After all, these are not Bose.

i'm not familiar with the bose, i would rate the shures as average, however their sound is above average.

Actually, I've found them quite good out of the Apple system and can probably compete with the Beats i have at home, they sound amazing in my computer and home system as well.. good luck with them.

It's almost like asking "are these the best shoes you can buy"? The answer depends on you and your intended purpose. Most headphones at this price point (and higher) are going to sound pretty good.
