A few weeks ago I contacted Bose about some Idea I saw on Amazon about users experiencing problems with the company's new SoundSport Wireless headphones, which I'd rated very highly. The problems seemed to be related to sweat -- or more precisely heavy sweat.
I did my best to replicate the problems, using the headphones on more than a dozen runs (I tend to go about 4 miles), some of them in temperatures over 80 degrees. I sweat, though apparently not enough. I've had no problems with the headphones -- they continue to work perfectly -- and there are plenty of 5-star reviews on Amazon from people who apparently love the product.
The updated version of the SoundSport Wireless will be available in August.
Sarah Tew/CNETBose reps promised to get back to me once the company received any "problem" units and were able to ascertain what was going wrong, if anything.
Well, the company has now responded to my inquiry. Bob Maresca, Bose's President and CEO, contacted me to let me know that Bose's engineers tore down every retued headphone and did extensive analysis to understand what was happening.
For the vast majority of SoundSport owners, he said, the product was delivering on its promise. However, "We found that SoundSport is sweat and weather resistant, but for a small percentage of people it wasn't working right under pretty specific conditions related to heavy sweat and moisture," Maresca said.
Maresca didn't specify exactly what the problem was, but he said Bose's engineers worked on and have now found a solutionthat, "Will be part of all SoundSports in the future, and they'll be ready at the end of August." (This means the upcoming SoundSport Pulse, which is due to arrive in September, will get the update).
Bose is letting customers that contact them know that anyone who has experienced the problem will get a new, updated SoundSport Wireless free of charge. "If they need a sport headphone between now and when we ship," Maresca added, "we'll send them a wired SoundSport, also free of charge."
Bose will also be reaching out to customers who've retued their SoundSport Wireless units and were sent a replacement. They'll be offered the option of receiving an updated SoundSport Wireless (when it comes out), even if they haven't had any problems with their replacement headphones. If impacted customers want a refund, Bose will honor that request with no questions asked, a Bose spokesperson informed CNET.
Maresca said he's talked to a few customers directly who've called Bose's customer service team. "Our priority is to do whatever we need to make it right," he said. "It doesn't matter if it's a small percentage or not. We want everyone who bought a SoundSport wireless to have a great experience, and we're all obsessing over that now, including me."
This is not the first time Bose has experienced an issue with one of its in-ear headphones. A few years back, when it released its first in-ear model, users experienced problems with the tips staying attached to the buds. The company came up with an updated design and offered to replace any tips free of charge.
While we await the update to the SoundSport Wireless CNET will remove the Editors' Choice award from our review. If there are no issues with the updated headphone, we'll reinstate the award.
