The original Wave products were designed without a headphone jack.

For consumers who would like to do so, connecting headphones to
original Wave products requires the purchase of an additional RCA-to-
®
mini-stereo-jack accessory. This is available from Bose at 1-800-444-BOSE.
(The material number is 029100.)
The Wave music system and the Wave

been designed with a standard headphone jack. The headphones can
be plugged into these systems with no adapter needed.
No. These headphones do not include features required to meet the
needs of pilots, nor do they meet FAA standards for aviation
communication. The Bose A20
meet these needs. For further information on the A20 Aviation Headset,
contact Bose Corporation at 1-800-444-BOSE.
Yes. Just as you can bring your own digital music player or laptop
computer onboard, you can bring your own personal headphones
onboard. However, as with any electronic device, there are FAA
restrictions on use during takeoff and landing. You are required to obey
the directions of flight attendants throughout the flight.
Yes. You can use the standard audio cable to connect these headphones
to the in-flight entertainment system and access both the movie audio
and music channels. On some airplanes, you can plug the cable directly
into the in-flight entertainment system's audio jack. Other airplanes have a
dual audio jack, so you will need to plug the cable into the dual plug
adapter before connecting to the airplane audio jack. Depending on the
aircraft, you may also want to use the included attenuating adapter for
greater volume control.
No. We do not recommend using these while driving. Many state laws
prohibit using headphones while operating a motor vehicle. It is your
responsibility to learn and adhere to the law in the states in which you
drive. However, passengers may enjoy using QuietComfort 25 Acoustic
Noise Cancelling headphones while riding in an automobile to remove
engine and road noise.
