Our take on the Bose QuietComfort 45 Headphones
The Bose QuietComfort 45 is a wireless noise-canceling headphone with Quiet and Aware modes, better for listening than for live monitoring. At a tracked $169.99 it sits in the lower half of its $144.99 to $329.99 range since July 13, 2026, about $25 over the low.
The listing cites up to 24 hours of battery, USB-C charging, a Bose Music app and over-ear comfort. The packet gives no latency figure for Bluetooth. Impedance is 32 ohms. Retailers rate it 4.6 across 19,587 ratings. It has no boom mic, so plan on a separate desk mic.

Where it fits in a build
Monitor your audio. Closed-back headphones (no mic) are the pro pick if you mic separately; a headset adds a mic for comms or casual use. See every headphones / headset pick
