It does kinda suck nowadays how everything is throwaway, 10 years old in my opinion shouldn't be obsolete and not repairable, especially since the company is still in business. Electronic repair shops seem to be a dying thing these days. I'd just fix it myself, saves the frustration of having to deal with "people"

We do live in a throw-away society, but we also live in a society where people expect unmerited favor. ...perhaps the best way to revert that is to learn to fix things for yourself and confront your unrealistic expectations of others, rather than try and spin it into some sort of lesson you're passing on to us or whatever.

It’s no wonder you’re still an instructor with that attitude. HR would spot that a mile away. Sadly young pilots are victim to your positive outlook.

Ok.. where's the guarantee they'll fix it? I doubt the results you desired were only "let's see what we can do." Sure, maybe they can fix it, but brace yourself that you might be super angry soon.

There's lots of Bose X parts still available online. I've rebuilt several pairs over the last 6ish years with little difficulty in sourcing parts.

Right.. so they're helping you. Cool. I'm confused. Why were you so angry in your original post? Did you decide to first get angry and then contact them afterwards? Now this thread seems like an awkward play-by-play.

Not u by any chance?

A sign of true maturity is responding to someone with "no u". It demonstrates a level of complex thought unmatched by us halfwits.

There’s a company in Ontario that fixes Bose headsets. Don’t remember the name. All said and done I reckon you’ll have them fixed up for less than a couple hundred bucks.

Also welcome to AvCanada lol

Thank you Sir. I appreciate the show of civility. I was beginning to wonder where all this hate was coming from.
