These headphones are amazing. The first time I put them on I was at my computer and I couldn't hear myself type at all. The sound is so clear that I've heard background singers in songs that I didn't even know were there. Even when my ipod is off, the headphones still buffer out all other sound. Great value, comfy on the head and ears, definitely a buy!!

I love my headphones. Excellent sound. Nice punching bass. They're perfect for long flights (I tried them on a 8 hr flight to Europe). They totally isolate you. I also use them inside my house when I want to enjoy my music without disturbing others. Excellent product!

Every song I played sounded significantly muddier than usual, and my ears are not especially keen. That in itself would have stopped me from buying it in the first place, but this product is packed with more disappointments.
I don't think these headphones were designed to be worn in public because they are a tad goofy-looking. The thick ear cups make them stick out far from the head and the angled hinges seem to be designed for keeping the ear cups tight on your head, definitely not for aesthetics. Even then, they squeeze your head tight so that it does hurt. I also do not have a wide head. I don't think full-size headphones are supposed to do that. None of the other ones I tried were as uncomfortable as these.
The noise canceling does add a hiss, though it does reduce an impressive...Read more
