Sony Noise Cancelling Earphone - MDRNC22/BLK
Black

I bought these headphones for my flight overseas. I was somewhat hesitant for a small earphone to be a good “noise canceling” headphones. However, I was surprised that they worked as well as they did. After more than 20 hours of use… I have yet to change the battery that came with the system.. The Sony headphones were about half the cost of the Bose headphones, and I cannot tell the difference. Overall…these are a pretty good sounding headphone and I would buy them again. The only reason I gave the rating of 4 for the ease of use was due to the aaa battery size box that is attached to the cord of the headphones.

I purchased these after losing my previous set. I had the previous model to these and I am more than happy with the increased performance and improved design compared to the early ones. I have never tried expensive models like Bose but given the difference in price I can't see how they can be so much better to justify the price. Once you start listening to your music or the movie on the plane you hear no backround noise at all. With the noise cancelling on but no music or movie input the sound of the plane is greatly reduced but you can still hear talking, but then I don't think anything is good enough to reduce all noise. Just remember to make sure the fit in your ear snugly or they don't work.
