Maxell's NC-II is the budget winner in Noise Canceling headphones.

Pros Cheap, long battery life, decent audio quality, cancels a decent amount of noise.
Cons Artificial bass level, minor complaints with N.C. quality.
Recommended it? Yes

---- Why do I need 'Noise Canceling'? -----

During my last cross-country plane flight I was seated next to a young man wearing what appeared to be large silver earmuffs. At second glance I realized they were actually headphones, as if the large Bose logo on the side wasn't a hint. After... Read full review »

Great headphones, but not comparable to high end models

Pros Maxell's unit costs less and still are effective for those on a lower budget.
Cons Lower quality noise reduction may not be as attractive to those seeking high end...
Recommended it? Yes

ears. They look and feel solid too. These headphones easily fold for storage. Using a pouch supplied with the headset helps making cord and N.C. on/off slider safer when carrying it around. Noise canceling is good for low pitch noise. I haven't flown in them, but I've worn them in noisy places and... Read full review »

Pros Superb Sound, very lightweight, comfortable fit, reasonable price
Cons Carrying case could be larger
Recommended it? Yes

Great Value, Excellent Replacement Headphone

11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent Sound for the money Don't fall out of your ears Robust cables and...
Cons Not *perfect* (but still vgood). Check the phones before leaving the store.
Recommended it? Yes

These headphones produce excellent value for money. For most people these are the perfect trade off of cost vs sound quality. When I got mp3 player it came with the usual cheap headphone and I couldn't stand them (since I'm used to my Sennheiser HD560's). I wanted good sound but didn't want to pay... Read full review »
