 WE HAVE A WINNER HERE............... July 3, 2008
I SPENT DAYS RESEARCHING NOISE-CANCELLING HEADPHONES. FINALLY I FOUND A U TUBE VIDEO USING A DUMMY HEAD WITH A MICROPHONE INSIDE IT, AND A NOISE MACHINE MAKING AIRCRAFT AND VARIOUS NOISES. THE VIDEO SHOWED MANY OF THE BRANDS ON THE HEAD AND THE SOUND READINGS, THE AUDIO-TECHNICA ATH-ANC7 PHONES CUT THE NOISE AS GOOD AS THE TWO TOP RATED BOSE MODELS DID. FOR THE MONEY THIS WAS A GREAT BUY. RECIEVED THEM TODAY,AND THEY WORK, ALMOST A 85 PLUS REDUCTION IN NOISE...................
 Good for the price July 3, 2008
I got my ATH-ANC7 and had to return them because the right channel was bad. I would get a lot of loud scratching and popping noises. Amazon sent me a new pair straight away.
The sound quality is not spectacular but it's good. The noise canceling function does a pretty good job. They won't block noises like talking but they do a good job of reducing back ground "hums" like a fan or a running dishwasher.
Good performance in flight July 3, 2008
I bought these along with the more expensive Able Planet Clear Harmony Active Noise-Canceling Headphones, and after comparing them in action, chose to return the Able Planet 'phones and keep these. When used at home these Audio-Technicas did a good job filtering out the noises of air conditioner and fans - which I had turned on loud as a test - and also produced true clear sound from my MP3 player (with the noise canceling turned off and turned on).
I have now used these headphones on two short (1.5 hours each) commercial flights and was pleased with their noise canceling functions. They did *not* eliminate all ambient noise, but did eliminate most of the plane's underlying engine noise, and certainly improved my flight experience - both when used with my iPod to listen to music, and with no sound input (just to reduce the noise).
Sadly, I didn't take a minute to put the phones back into my carryon bag when leaving the plane at the end of the second flight (just looped them around the outside of the bag/handles), and somewhere along the way they were lost. My bad. I am really sorry to have lost these headphones. Rather than order another set of these phones, I may buy a similar but significantly less expensive product available at a local store right now: the Philips SHN9500 Active Noise Canceling Headphone. I will be taking some long international flights in a few months and hope to use noise canceling headphones then, to reduce some of the stress and fatigue.
Whatever headphones I buy next time, I will surely be more careful to stow them away when traveling.
 Better than Bose? Are you kidding me??? July 2, 2008

I bought these headphones instead of the Bose based on the reviews here. I thought I could save some coin and still have my hi-fidelity. Many reviews here state that these headphones are comparable or perhaps even better than the Bose.
NO WAY.
The reviewers that are of that opinion must value the money they saved more than the significant loss in audio fidelity. You like saving close to $200, who doesn't? But don't lie to yourself or to me, these headphones are inferior to the Bose. If you say the Bose aren't worth the extra $200, that's an argument that I'll listen too. If you're on a budget, consider these phones. If fidelity is important to you, get the Bose.
If you just can't justify paying $300 for the Bose but still want good fidelity, consider the Sony MDR-NC60. They don't have the fidelity of the Bose, but they sound much better than the Audio-Technica. The Sony's are also smaller and lighter for traveling but perhaps not quite as rugged as the AT's.
Audio Quality is not good enough July 2, 2008

If you are serious music listner, do not buy this product.
This headphone has problem with high tone and base and makes noises with them.
If you are planing wearing this for a long time, do not buy because you can feel pains around your ears.
I do not recommend this product for users in above category.
