Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra 2 Earbuds Rushing Wind Noise
I just purchased these earbuds and enjoyed them with ANC for about 35 seconds until my left earbud started making a noise like constant wind being blown into my ear.
\- I tried adjusting the earbud to every other size of band and earpiece provided by Bose and attempting the seal test, but the left one never shows up as a good seal. Even when I push the earbud into my ear at many different angles, it never reads as a good seal. Interestingly, the only time I do not hear the wind is when doing the seal test.
\- I originally paired using the app, so I tried uninstalling it and connecting through BT only and they yielded the same result.
\- I factory reset the buds by holding the button on the back of the case for around 20 seconds, three separate times in a row until the light flashed amber and I had to repair. This didn’t help.
\- I’ve created a custom mode via app and slid the ANC all the way down. This didn’t work.
Has anyone had this issue and resolved it? I like the look and feel of these but by the looks of it will have to return them. Disappointing.
