Just a quick update: I have recently taken delivery of a set of ANC7 and I have a few comments to make on them:- 1. I was previously concerned that they may not fit my ears - no problems, they fit fine and are quite comfortable. Although, I haven't worn them for several hours at a time...

I read through the thread as well. Seems good. However, I have read other reviews where noise leakage has been reported as a serious problem. How can there be such extremes of view on this ? Granted, there are significantly more reviews that do NOT complain about leakage, but there are...
