The HD 201 is your budget headphone. But don't knock it - this unit puts out powerful sound with emphasis on the bass. The closed headphone design limits the amount of noise filtering in from your environment, so you can be sure that you'll be hearing nothing but the music you're listening to.

I have owned my MDR-NC500d Digital Noise Canceling Headphones for a couple of months. I sampled several high-end headphones, and found these to be equal to all that I tried in sound quality. The Digital Noise Canceling circuitry bests all that I sampled, to including the Bose QC15, and... Read full review »
