Total game-changer

Prior to having this device, the situation when playing along at home was: -A cable from the mobile to the amp aux to feed in the backing track. -A cable from the amp to my headphones. -A cable from my guitar to the amp, of course. Now, no cables at all. Also, amp modeling, battery stamina, connectivity, everything is satisfactory.

Beautiful

Amazing quality, superb sound and no cables makes it fantastic. The phone app could and should be better and the battery life is kinda annoying...it needs daily charging...Anyway, Waza Air is the best practice experience for guitar if you have a busy, noisy household... just an awesome product from Boss. Highly recommended!

Pricey yet Awesome Gear for Home Practice

I had a nice and easy experience with Boss Katana 50 Mk ii so soundwise had a smooth transition with these bad boys. I needed to sell my 50 mk ii and shortly after that, I moved into an old and small apartment so that's the time I decided to pull the trigger and buy the Waza air. A great investment for sure. Busting your axe without hurting your loved ones' ears is a huge plus. One minor downer, which I couldn't find as a reason to lower any star for that, is the battery life. Not a deal breaker, I barely recall any time that I left without any juice to power up the headphones when I'm in the zone and riffing/exercising. Still, something to be mindful of. You better put it on the plug every time you finish playing though. I'd blindfoldly recommend the Waza Air to anyone living in close quarters or needing to practice without noise complaints. They're particularly ideal for late night musicians or those who share their living space with others.

close to what I expected

sound is ok, if it had an output for headphones or a speaker it would be great

Good product, annoying app though but if you live in an apartment with thin walls it really is fantastic or if you are traveling . I sold my boss Katana as this does the same and since I found myself constantly having to use headphones. Battery life is good. Sometimes it gets disconnected , but after updating firmware I have had almost no problems.

A great Bluetooth headphone system

Although a bit expensive this is a great Bluetooth headphone system and the generated tones bare the classic Boss quality. The supplied BOSS Tone Studio app is very easy to use and provides a wealth of tonal options that make sound editing a pleasure.

Very useful for practice and traveling, since it has a good construction and its anatomic design is very comfortable for extended periods of play.

Really useful!

I often peruse the internet in search of new gadget to help me progress on my journey learning guitar, however nothing I have seen before has compared with the comfort and ease of use the Boss Waza Air provide.

With a charge time of 1 hour for every 5 hours of play time and so many different effects to choose from these headphone amps are truly a gratifying experience.

There are always new features to discover with the Boss Waza Air, my personal favourite being the gyro effect which can be used with bluetooth so you can stream any music you want from your phone;

When you turn your head.. the properties of the music change so it sounds like you are truly playing with the creators of your favourite music!

All in all I would recommend the Boss Waza Air Headphones to anyone interested in progressing their guitar skills, beginner, intermediate, advanced, master, it doesnt matter. These headphones are enjoyable for all and I cant wait for you to explore them too.

dazed & confused

I'm dazed because these headphones are a dream. I've updated the firmware to the latest version (as of January 2022) and there are no connection problems, the wandering speaker problem is not an issue anymore and the connection with the app is rock solid. The tones you get are fantastic, given that you like the BOSS Katana. Classic pedal effects simulations... The whole nine yard worth of BOSS/Roland goodness.

But... I'm the only one that can listen to my bad guitar chops... Well this is the point, isn't it? Yes, but for nearly €400 a output jack or any other output should have been present. So I'm confused now... Do I want to keep them or go with a fender micro?

Great for home practice!

I love these. They aren't perfect, especially with the iOS bias, but they do exactly what I wanted! I do wish you could record out, but if you use with a pedalboard (rather than using on-board dsp etc) you can have a pretty good, wireless (and neighbour friendly) set up.

Best way to practise, and a top bluetooth earphone

This Earphone has two Conactions, midi for the guitar and Audio for your phone or laptop. That means you can hear a music track and play with it. There are some Tone packages in the APP, which are kinda useable. The building quality is very good, there is no uncomfortable feeling by ear.

What I really want to say, is this is a very wide range Earphone. Bluetooth earphones are highly limited by the board width of Bluetooth technic itself, but this one can really catch a wide range of the frequence. Both high end and low end sound very full. It is really comparable to a real AMP.

Since this is a relative new Product, there is some issues to be improved. There is no "Sleep Mode", I fogot sometimes to shut it down after using. Then it just went out of battery. I understand if it sleeps while playing it could be worse, but I hope there would be a way to solve this.

The adopter and the earphone must be separatedly charged.

If you plug the adopter into a Pedal, e.g. an out-end of a looper, or using some other pedals, it stops working like about every 20min. I dont really understand why.

In general, this worth it a lot. It is just the best way to dive in your own guitar world without disturbing. And I works perfectly alone as a Bluetooth earphone
