I just picked up a pair of Etymotic 6i headphone last week and have been adjusting to them, as they are my first real inner ear headphones. It took a bit of time, but I can finally get a proper seal without piercing my eardrums. Now, I have noticed that they seem to slip out pretty quickly...

I recently purchased a pair of Alessandro/Grado’s for $99 and they sound incredible! (http://www.alessandro-products.com/headphones.html – Thank you KR.. for the link) I bought them to please my better half, since she had been complaining about the “noise” from video games, computer use...

I'm a newbie and want to get a hifi set of cans, so I have been reading through some of the threads here to learn what I can. I have noticed that noise canceling headphones are never really a topic. Is the noise canceling feature anything to consider or is it impractical? Thanks
