BOSS Waza-Air | Over-Ear Guitar Sound System | Wireless Connectivity | Premium Amp & Effect Tones | Advanced Spatial Technology | Integrated Gyro Sensor | Companion App-Based Editor

First, let’s talk about the sound quality. I was originally looking for a really great set of headphones that I could plug-in and get truly great sound. When these headphones popped up in the suggestions I was skeptical. That lasted until my first listen. All of my guitars sound crisp and clear and bright. The sound is actually better than my beats studio threes and I imagine they would compare favorably to any other $400 pair of headphones. Now let’s talk about the tech. Being able to plug-in the little fob into my guitar and have it play through the headphones is awesome! When I was first looking at headphones I told myself that I would be content dealing with the cord. This completely illuminates that. So strictly as a practice device you get fantastic sound quality and a no Mas no fuss set up with no wires. The tech contained in this unit is simply magnificent. It’s going to be a little bit difficult to describe but I’ll try. When everything is connected the app that runs on your smart phone can be set up so that as you move your head the sound of your guitar actually changes position. I know, it sounds weird. But it’s awesome! Imagine that you’re playing the guitar facing your amp and then you move your head to the left and the sound of the amp stays in the same position so it would be louder in your right ear which is closer to the speaker. And then as you move your head the other way it’s still seems like the amp hasn’t moved even though your head is moved. In one of the settings the 3-D sound that you’re getting from the headphones makes it seem like the speakers are behind you. So imagine that you’re fronting a band and the band is playing behind you and you were playing guitar in front of them. Yeah. It sounds like that. I highly recommend that you watch some of the videos so that you can see how this feature works. It’s like nothing else I’ve ever seen and it’s amazing to play with. Hearing is absolutely believing. If you are technologically challenged, this might not be the set up for you. There is a very specific set of instructions that you need to follow in order to set these up so that you can play your guitar and also listen to music streaming from your phone to play along with. If you do not follow the instructions or if you get impatient you are going to get frustrated. That being said, it’s worth taking the time, reading the instructions carefully, and making sure that you set everything up correctly. That investment of time and effort will pay huge dividends because this set up is like nothing you’ve ever Heard short of actually playing in front of a band. I highly recommend this.

Sound amazing. Connevtivity is perfect. App is great if you want to dial in your sound. Amazing that you can control guitar volume AND Bluetooth music volume separately from two different knobs on the actual headphones. App is fine, not great not bad. Get these and look no further.

This is the 3rd device I have bought. I avoided buying it before because of the cost. The problem is the cheaper ones sound like crap. This one sounds awesome. Lots of cool effects. It’s easy to balance the backing tracks with live guitar. Just awesome! You might as well save the money of trying cheaper ones so you don’t end up buying 3 like me. I first bought this at the big guitar store. It looked like the box had been opened and it was missing the cable and paperwork so is assumed it was a return. It kept disconnecting so I returned it. I ordered it again but this one from Amazon. After a couple hours I have yet to have any connectivity issues. If I do I think I would just tolerate it because there doesn’t seem to ge a good alternative.

These phones are pretty good. I have used them every day since I got them last month. I use them with my iPhone and I find that they have an issue that causes the sound to get choppy/jittery occasionally. I can reconnect them to fix it but it is annoying. I also find that when I use it with my Relish guitar I can’t use the ghost piezo because of an issue with how it uses the stereo jack. Other than those issues they have been great. Also way expensive.

First impressions, I've only just got these in the mail but there are some surprising details I did not expect that makes this early review reasonable to make, Getting these in my hands, I was very surprised with just how small these are, like child size, I mean the drivers are so small, I thought these were over ear headphones, they are not, maybe for a child but not for adults even with small ears, but the clamp force isn't bad, and can be size to fit my large head fine, its the drivers themselves that are super small, at a $400 plus price tag, expectations are above average, I got these after using the Mooer Prime P1 portable headphone amp/sim, deciding to give these a try for less cables, and more simple use, and after the first practice session, I'll continue to use these for practice over the Prime P1, The sound stage is honestly really good, sound quality for these tiny drivers is some what impressive, they were easy to setup, I was practicing with in 10 minutes of charging them, could of right out of the box, I can see these being really useful. That said . . . All though I can wear these and use them as they are intended, for the price, these don't look or feel like $400+ more like walmart bargain bin, with cheap finger magnet chrome, feeling like these will break with in a year or less, the construction just feels cheap, The sliding rails for the speakers are unmarked, with no indicator for where they are at on the slider, so there really isn't any way to know if your evenly spaced, The app, it does the job, and has a good selection of sims, sounds really good, though the app's graphics leaves one wanting, going for function above all else, which is fine. Only one charging cable, and if reviewers are correct, you can only charge these by their micro usb charging ports, the headphones has a 1/4 jack, but that's just for paring as far as I know, for the price, I expected two charging cables, The wireless dongle sticks pretty far out, and bumping it will cause crackling so I'd strongly suggest buying a less then 1 foot extension cable, oddly not a common cable, but one I would suggest finding regardless, honestly such a cable should of been included too at this price point, So is it worth the price, no, but you don't have very many options for now, and I'm sure that's why the price is that high, which would I suggest getting, These or the Mooer Prime P1, well if you already have a decent pair of headphones and you don't mind wearing them while you play, and if $400 is a lot to spend on a hobby your just getting into, then yeah the Prime P1, if its not a lot of money, and don't want to deal with any cables at all, then the Waza-Air is for you, personally I for see using the Waza tell it inevitably breaks after a year then switch back to the Prime P1.

As soon as you pull it out of the box it looks and feels like a quality product. When I unboxed it, in my excitement, I just turned the headset on, plugged in my bass, started a track on my iPhone and it worked. I couldn't believe it. It has some cool features so eventually you'll need to 'review' the user doc. But overall, the phone app is pretty intuitive. Since receiving the WAZA Air I have used it a lot. Occasionally the Bluetooth gets wonky, and you have to go through re-pairing. It would also be nice if the battery level was more apparent, you have to go into system settings to check it. I wish I had known they made a bass version, but I am very happy with what I have. It sounds and works great!

These headphones are great. My little dog hates it when I plug my guitar into my amp even when the attenuator is set low. Whatever Boubou wants she gets. So I invested in some regular headphones and plugged them into a mini amp. Most uncomfortable. So I got these so I could practice. They are comfortable, The sound quality is great. The effects are there but my Les Paul doesn’t need any help to growl so I play mostly clean. And no cables to trip over. It’s incredible how these headphones make you feel like you are plugged into a real amp in a real room. It’s like a virtual venue. I forget I am wearing headphones at all and I can wear them for quite some time without getting tired. Boubou is more tolerant of them but she still doesn’t like it when I play. Probably because I play pretty badly. All in all I am very satisfied with them but they should have come with a case for the kind of money Boss wants for them. Pricey but worth it.

I've been a 'hobbyist musician' for over 20 years. I mostly like to just learn and play along with records and do a bit of home recording. Over that time I've gone through my fair share of gear. After a few months of owning these headphones I can say hands down these are the most impactful piece of equipment on improving my playing. They just make it so much easier to practice any time or place and the sound quality is great. They made me want to practice ALL the time and of course, that's a great way to start a positive feedback loop of practicing more leading to improving faster leading to even more desire to practice. I wish I would've purchased when they first came out! The sound quality and experience brings you closer to your instrument, becoming more aware of getting good tone, articulation and limiting little mistakes (string noise etc). I might soon take the 'hobbyist' nomer out and just start considering myself a musician through and through, thanks to these. EXTREMELY highly recommended, definitely worth the money.

I'm free from tangled up cables, Headphone cables always in the way. All I want to do is grab my guitar, put the Waza air phones on and play.I could lay down on my bed get comfortable be relaxed and play better. I could even go out on my balcony on a beautiful day and play guitar outside, or on the beach,in the park, even take it camping. No Latency with Waza Air. Great sounding headphones. Comfortable over the ear and removable ear pads, just pull them off if they ever need to be replaced, they easily snap back on,held in place with strong magnets, don't worry they won't budge. High quality guitar headphones they could easily handle loud electric guitar and bass with no fear of blowing them out. You even get those great BOSS pedal effects and 5 amplifier sounds. I'm glad I finally got this Waza-Air system. Plus, and I must be honest here, I love playing it, it is so choice , if you have the means I highly recommend picking one up.

Precisamente era lo que necesitaba para poder ensayar con mi guitarra eléctrica de forma inhalámbrica y sin molestar a nadie con mi "ruidero" además la APP trae diferentes sonidos para hacer más ameno y variado mi ensayo y afinador integrado, no me arrepiento de haberlo comprado

These headphones are an absolutely superb quality product. If your looking to practice or jam along with backing tracks recordings etc. Look no further you will not be disappointed. Used with a headless Steinberger GT Pro guitar makes a lot of sense when jamming layed back on the couch or traveling. Small light and compact combination, without the loss of sonic quality. Highly recommended for keeping up your guitar practice in your own private space without disturbing others. No distractions…

Llevo un par de meses usandolo, la calidad de audio es muy buena, tambien tengo el Katana Air y considero que la calidad del Boss Waza Air es superior, no se desconecta del telefono y tampoco tampoco tengo problemas de retraso de sonido, se puede poner una pista de fondo y practicar sobre ella, de modo que ayuda mucho a mejorar en la ejecución de la guitarra, he conectado el audio desde el telefono o la computadora y funciona perfectamente bien.

Well I think I finally found something that makes me want to play my guitar more often. Once you hook up to these you are in your own world where you can make basically any sounds you want and focus more on the way you are playing.
