    Better than the Beats by Dre!!

    These headphones stunned me the first time I put them on! I'm not an audiophile, but I can tell you right now that these headphones are FLAWLESS!!! I'll admit, they are a little pricey, but worth every penny if you're going to use them daily. They are great quality headphones that you'll probably be able to keep for a very long time! The hard-shell case is also very strong, roomy, I can even fit my cell phone in the case, and its sleek design lets me put it in my bag without my bag bulking up. Although it doesn't have very loud bass, it is smooth and great quality! I definitely recommend this to someone who is willing to pay for quality, and not the looks, you will be satisfied!

    I bought Sennheiser PXC 450 after years of replacing parts on the Bose. Bose materials are as cheap as you can find on any sound canceling headphones. For such a premium price you'd think they could provide a cord better than a $19.95 pair of cheap headphones. Don't waste your money.

    For 300 dollars you would think they would last for more than a year.

    These were my favorite headphones. They are comfortable and the sound quality is fantastic. BUT they are useless when the sounds stops out of one side...

    Amazing Sound Quality!!!

    • Written by from Ada

    I recently wanted to get a good pair of noise canceling/reducing headphones for my job which can get loud. I tried out a few but these were for sure the best. They have great noise reduction, when not playing music you can still here a little, but as long as you are playing music your surroundings are silent. The sound quality is also amazing, compared to several pairs of headphones I found that these were the best. These make me want to listen to music all day long, and listen to every song again! These are amazing and I suggest these to everyone.

    I was reading about this Headphones since a few months ago and some people said that its not so good for the street but they are perfect, I mean, they obviously won't erase the exterior sound, but the name is very clear "Acustic Noise Cancelling" they Cancell just the extreme Noise, no the entire sound, I think they Worth every penny and i am so happy because finally i had it.

    This set is incredible.
    Have never used any noise cansellation equipment as good as this one. I had been using the set with the AAA battery that came with it since I bought it 2 weeks ago and it is still running strong

    These are perfect for flying! You can't hear any engine or cabin noise, they're comfortable to wear for long periods of time, and the carry case is very sleek and convenient. These are the best headphones I have ever owned or used! I highly recommend buying them!!!

    Incredible sound, but a lot of leakage

    • Written by from Chicago

    45 of 51 people found this useful

    The quality of sound on these is like no other headphone that I've ever tried. The base isn't overly disturbing (as on beats). They quality of materials is also excellent, fairly sturdy but still flexible enough. My one and only problem is the huge amount of sound leakage that occurs when I play music. I know this because sometimes I let other members of my family use them and I can hear the music almost as well as them sometimes. But otherwise, I love them!

    contrary to what appears to be popular consensus, these have tight, and satisfying bass. More than beats in my opinion. But it is much beter balanced. The noise cancelling is extremely good. very comfortable. and doesnt look as funky as you think. very classy and stylish. feels solid and well built. great product... five stars

    I love this headphones. They make you want to listen to your entire music collection because they sound incredibly good. The noise cancellation works perfecty and it blocks 90% of the external sound so you listen only your music. Try them on before you buy them, but of you want good headphones, this are the ones you're looking for.

    Works amazing for traveling

    Just bought these headphones last week and had a 6 hour flight home the same day. After having heard only good things about from my uncle, I had to get a pair! Not believing that they would cancel the noise from the plane's engine, I was totally amazed when I started the noise canceling and by the time I put on the music, all of the noise from the engines was gone!

    Even my fiance, who was against the purchase from the beginning, was amazed and did not want to let me have them back after having tried them on!

    ... because of these. They tend to be loud and I work from home and the noise canceling keeps at bay even the loudest rap bass.

    Nobody gets shot. :D

    And the music sounds a w e s o m e , too. I'm nearly deaf in one ear and really appreciate high quality sound.

    Conference calls are seamless.

    Win!

    Most epic sound

    • Written by from Duesseldorf

    66 of 71 people found this useful

    I just put these headphones on after buying them at the apple store and i must say that these headphones produce one of the best sound experiences that I have ever listened too. The music is clear and you hear nearly nothing of the outside world. they may not look as nice as beats or other promo headphones but they definitely sound 10x better. one of the best things is probably the noise canceling. as i already mentioned it is incredible. also many people say that these headphones do not deliver an adequate amount of bass. However the bass is great and you can always change the equalizers. Althought I did not test the mic or remote yet I am convinced they will be great So for all you people out there headphones like beats or soul by ludacris or any other celebrity endorsed headphones may look nice and be popular but for the price tag on them (which is often just the same as these) you will be more satisfied getting these headphones. There is one downside however and that is that you can not use these headphones without one AAA battery as they will not work in passive mode this is not a problem though because all you need too two is carry one or two extras with you in the carrying case (also a great extra) and you'll be fine as the battery will last c. 35 hours. Oh and one more thing, (yeah thats a steve jobs quote) they also come with an airplane adapter which is very practical. so to round this review of these headphones are great and are really worth the 300 dollars they also offer better performance that the beats so buy them if you're thinking about getting new headphones.

    Noise muffling, not noise canceling, and...

    • Written by from Michigan City

    These are noise muffling, not noise canceling headphones. Plus, the noise canceling technology causes an slightly audible background "hiss".

    If you need to muffle out background noises, then these are the headphones for you.

    If already have a quiet environment, and you want pure audio quality, these are not the headphones you want. You may want to choose the standard Bose headphones.

    Best Headphones on Market

    • Written by from Sherrard

    49 of 54 people found this useful

    These headphones are great for noise reduction, and great for sound. If you are looking for heavy bass, then go with the beats; otherwise these win hands down over every headphones on the market. If you go into the Apple store and ask them about the headphones, they will point you in this direction. I have had zero problems with them, and have owned them for a couple of years. Worth every penny.
