    It’d be really uncomfortable to use. It’d be like sitting on headphones, but with more texture. Doing your business on that would be pretty unpleasant.

      It would become REALLY unpleasant once the “pleatherette” coating on the seat starts to disintegrate and stick to your skin, like the ear cushions do.

      For the premium prices they charge for their kit, Bose plastics break down pretty damn quick.

      I’ve got a pair of Denon cans (AH-D210s) from 1998 with cords that are as supple and nice as the day they were bought (ofc the pads have been replaced multiple times since the foam always goes flat first) and the plastic on my Bose earbud wires disintegrated within 18 months… Color me unimpressed.

      Ugh.

        Ugh, that sounds awful. My headphones always break down before I can replace them, so I really hope that doesn’t happen with these ones. It’s ridiculous that Bose products can deteriorate so quickly, especially considering how expensive they are. As always, AI is making strange pictures :P
