#headphones #Repair #QC45

What over-ear wireless headphones that include #ANC do people recommend? My wife and I had #Bose #QC35 back in the day and loved them but they got shitty in the #QC45 model. Went to #Anker #Soundcore headphones because I loved the #Earbuds I accidentally bought on #Amazon. We've tried both the Soundcore #Space45 and #Q20i and the sound is wonderful, the battery if fantastic, but the build quality is sub par and plastic is brittle and starts to break at stress points on all three Soundcore headphones we've had.

Have #Bose fixed the issues with their QC series or should I look elsewhere?

I love the #Bose #QC45, it's definitely worth every penny and I'm happy I got it as a gift, but man does the ear cups not last long - they're actually already falling apart. I've to look for replacements and hope they offer the same comfort (for a reasonable price).

I don't know when this started but previously my #Bose #QC45 works perfectly on #Linux where I could select the AAC profile/codec and be done with it. Now on #KDE Plasma, the AAC and the other high quality codecs keep going missing, even after reconnecting the headphones, and it'll go to the garbage headset codec, mSBC.

I think this issue might occur when I have #OBS open but this was never the case before, and I don't think I have anything configured on OBS that would cause this i.e. using the QC45's mics or wtv. Pretty annoying and idk what the fuck could fix it.

would a FiiO - BTR3K be useful if i want to use my Bose QC45 wireless with it, with it connected to my android phone? would it make much difference?
