 Perfect October 13, 2008
Tamara Helmer (Billings, MT)
My husband and I traveled overseas for the first time and this product was perfect for the long flight. It truly does cut out the background noise and made movie watching, listening to the IPod, and sleeping enjoyable.
 Good sound quality but.... October 13, 2008
Yingyot Chanthawornsawat
I decided to buy this headphone after reading many reviews on a couple headphones. In my opinion, I would say that this headphone gives a nice sound quality (I use with my Zune). However, I am not satisfied much on the noise canceling mode much. I expect that external noise is screened more.
In conclusion, in term of sound quality, I give 5 stars but for the noise canceling mode, I give 3 stars.
Good in the office, less good on the plane October 12, 2008
curiouser (Chicago)
These headphones work very well for my purposes, but they won't satisfy everyone. Audio quality is good, but not great: compared to the open, clean sound of a pair of Grados these sound a little muffled and muddy. For my needs, the noise cancellation is great: window air conditioners, dehumidifiers, dishwashers, office ventilation systems are all virtually inaudible with the noise cancellation switched on. I've only used the headphones on airplanes a couple of times, and found them less satisfactory there. The QuietPoints help a lot, and jazz and rock are clearly audible. But quiet passages in classical music are still hard to hear, even with much of the plane's background hum cancelled out.
 great sound but hurts my ears October 12, 2008
Bugsby10
As other reviewers have described, the sound quality is great for the price. But I find the headset uncomfortable after just a few minutes. I don't think my ears are unusually large, but they get crunched uncomfortably by the headset, enough that I don't really want to keep it on for more than an hour.
Great value, subpar airline adapter. October 9, 2008
Anders S. Nielsen (Denmark)
Just flew from Copenhagen to Austin on two Continental flights with a friend who has the Bose QuietComfort 3 headphones, so we did a little comparing.
Audio quality is good on both, no question there.
Noise-reduction was pretty equal, perhaps with a slight edge to the Bose 'phones which were able to better cancel a certian low-frequency engine roar.
While listening to the airplane's entertainment system on with AT's, there was a rather loud tinnitus-like sound. The Bose set didn't have the sound. We were able to narrow down the cause of this difference to the airline adapters. The airline adapter of the Bose set apparently has a built-in noise reduction feature. While using the Bose airline adapter with the AT headphones, the noise was gone.
I might get an aftermarket airline adapter for my AT's if airline entertainment system noise turns out to be common problem. The sound wasn't volume sensitive, so I was able to drown it out (or at least forget about it) by turning up the volume a notch.
Another difference is the Bose set's active noise cancellation seems to exert more pressure on the eardrum. On the AT set, this is hardly noticable.
My friend was uncomfortable wearing my AT's because his ears are large enough to get squeezed slightly by the rather small earcups. This isn't a problem for me.
