Not bad for a relatively cheap replacement [Posted on 2008-05-29] I travel a lot and usually pass the time on an airplane reading and listening to music on my I-pod. After my last pair of headphones were stolen, I needed to buy new ones. I didn't want to spend the money that I had previously spent on a pair Sennheiser headphones, so I opted for these as a cheaper replacement. They are actually quite comfortable and I didn't have any problems wearing them for the entire 4 hour flights to and from home. They don't knock out the noise like the higher end noise cancelling phones do, but they work in a pinch, and like I said they are pretty comfortable. I'd give them a higher rating, but they're just not Sennheiser or Bose quality.
Good for the price, Uncomfortable [Posted on 2008-06-10] As others have stated, the Sony MDR-NC6 works to "reduce" noise but are quite uncomfortable. While in Vienna, I lost this set and went with a $60 JVC model that I love when I returned to the states. Yes, the price is far more, but on a long haul like that, It is worth it.
Good Value [Posted on 2008-06-15] These headphones seem to have good noise cancelling capability - good range of volume coverage, so that I can listen to classical music and hear both quiet and loud passages without having to adjust the volume. As a test, I sat near to the clothes dryer - impressive. For the price, these are great. I have only two minor criticisms. The headband can be quite uncomfortable - no matter how the size is adjusted, the band sits heavily on top of my head. And these do not fold quite as conveniently as other headphones do, which makes them somewhat bulky. But they come with a useful bag.
BEST HEADPHONES EVER [Posted on 2008-06-18] THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST SET OF HEADPHONES I HAVE EVERY OWNED. I AM A FREELANCE SPORTS WRITER AND HAVING "PRIVACY" WHEN TRANSCRIBING NOTES FROM MY RECORDER IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO EVERYBODY AND WOULD BUY AGAIN IN A HEART BEAT.
Sony Noise Canceling Headphones [Posted on 2008-06-19] Great product and great value for the money. My 2nd pair. My 20 year old son liked the 1st pair so much that they walked off with him. Also very useful if you travel by airplane as well. Highly recommended.
