Hello. I have done some research on noise cancelling headphones and decided to buy a pair. I am seventeen and I want to use the money I earn to buy the best noise cancelling headphones, the pair who has the best noise cancelling and sound quality. I found 3 headphones and I am not sure what...

Hey guys, Im pretty new here on the forums. I just have a couple questions on Portable headphones, because I am planning to buy a new pair this year.   1. I have looked at the Audio Technica ATH-ANC7 and ATH-ANC7b, and read that the only difference is that the C7b has slightly better sound...

Hello Everyone,   I am looking for a cheaper alternative to Bose QC15 headphones.  I think they are a bit pricey and would like to see if there are any comparable alternatives.  Main use is for music and video, not exactly for prefessional use.

Hi All - i'm looking for the best over-the-ear, noise cancellation headphones for use with my iPhone.  My main concern at this point is leakage.  Since I will be using these around people most of the time (at work, at home, etc), it's very important that leakage is minimal.  For those with...

Yes, I  am in the market for a new pair of over the ear headphones prefer closed but one of my options is an open one.  I mostly listen to rock, alternative, some rap, and spoken word as well as watching a lot of movies too.  The primary source will be an ipod touch 64g 3rd generation with a...

I have started reading over a lot of the previous posts but want to make sure I am not missing anything. I come seeking your wisdom, you are all much greater than I am. Please take pitty on this fool before you and guide me to the correct decision. So here is my full run-down. 32 white &...

I live in a noisy apartment and am looking for a top pair of noise canceling headphones. How well it cancels ambient noise is my top concern because I'll be wearing them to do homework.  I also care about sound quality but I'm not an audiophile so that isn't as big of an issue.  Comfort would...

    Ideal headphones surrounds the ear (not pressing on it like the Basic Bose no sweat when the weather is cold, protects the ears against the open cold air and winds Hard to break strong cords or better yet, no cords #1 reason why the headphone becomes useless is because the...

Today at my local store, I had a chance to test this full-size headphone from BOSE. My first impression - I was totally shocked by how bad it sound. Vocal and treble is bordering on shrillness and, sometimes, makes me cringe. I didn't get to test bass though, because they had only one song...

As title. What should I get instead? I want the pinnacle of audio quality and build quality, and any noise cancellation would be great, since I fly a lot.

I love my HD600 to bits as it is so detailed ... but I am after another set with skull crunching bass (both in quality and quantity) but having as much other detail as possible, around the $300-400 mark ... the fact that I am EQ-ing all my music to increase bass from 16-125kHz suggests I need...

Hi guys.   Till recently I had Sennheiser HD212 and it is with them that I realized how much I actually like good sound and good headphones.   Since my dad loves them also, I gave these to him and I'm now in the market for new headphones. The problem is that I am not sure whether I need...

Hi all, So I have been lurking on the forums for quite a while and its all your fault that my first purchase was a klipsch image s4 :). So, I have finally decided, that after listening to my friends bose iem's that the s4's though known for bass did not blow me away as much. I am not saying I...

Hi all, I am looking for an on-ear headset. I normally listen to alternative rock, classics and occasional R&B. Should be comfortable for long sessions of gaming. Has mid-bass and noise-cancellation technology. I have bought and returned a pair of Audio-Technica ATH m50 because i felt that it...

Hi everyone, I am selling my Bose QC15 for 230 € shipped(Worlwide) with the box and all the accessories. Bought New the 19-11-2009. I sell it because of Denon AH-D7000. Very Very Good Condition. Paypal payment or pick up if you live in Belgium. Thanks.

Hi, my name's Brett and I'm 16. I don't consider myself an audiophile or anything, but I'm kind of interested in getting some audiophile headphones. I've had a pair of Bose QuietComfort 15 headphones for around the past year, and they sound about ten times as good as they used to now that I've...

Sup everyone,   I am looking to get some Bose QC over the ear headphones, as I travel a lot and need good noise cancellation along with decent sound quality.   I was looking into the QC 15, and noticed they have been out for a while now, since 2009.  I could wait though if the QC 15 will be...

First let me say, I really would appreciate it if everyone would refrain from any unnecessary Bose bashing.  If you haven't THOROUGHLY listened to the QC15s and atleast one of the other candidates, please keep your opinions to yourself.  I'm looking for experienced, constructive opinions only...

I'm looking for headphones where sound quality is not a factor. i just want as much sound cancellation as possible + maximum comfort. I'm not really sure where to go, since most reviews factor in noise quality, which is something i just don't care about in the pair that i'm looking for (i...

So, I've looked all over these forums, and the obvious first-pick for a good pair of headphones for Rock or Metal (my favorite genres of music) are the Grado Labs SR60i and SR80i. I was just wondering, are they noise canceling? I am guessing not, but at the same time I never considered how...

So I know there are a few threads which touch on this, but I've been reading for a few days and still have some unanswered questions.   I fly every week for work, and have been using Monoprice 8320s with Comply TX-400 tips on the plane. I'm looking to upgrade, partially because I have an 18...

So with my main dynamic and stat rigs about "set", I decided to look for a great portable headphone. My requirements for this would be the ability to isolate out background noise (like my kids, or an airplane) and a great sounding headphone, so last year I started on a journey that now after a...

Ok you are going to think I am kidding, but yes I actually DID do the following test. People argue that 300 bucks is a lot to pay for some noise canceling headphones and the audio quality isn't always the greatest. Well today I actually did the follwing test. Today I got my new pair of CX200...

Hi, I'm really interested in the hk nc headset as an alternative to Bose qc15's. Judging from the spec sheet they should be better than the boses. The weird thing is that the only reviews I find are about the cl and bt units. No shop in the Netherlands has them in stock to hear them...

Any recommendations? I've tried the Sony MDR V6 and Creative Aurvana Live, and found them too tight/uncomfortable. My main priorities are 1) low clamping force, 2) large/very large ear cups, 3) thick padding, and 4) excellent comfort for long usage. I'm basically looking for a closed version of...
