Hi all,
Long time reader but first time poster. I'm looking to buy noise cancelling headphones because of a noisy work environment. I already have Ath-M50s, HD280 Pro, and HD555s for general listening so my main priority would be noise cancelling while listening to music/podcasts on my Android phone.
Every review I read frames the model in terms of its price (i.e. Beats are not worth $200). Here's my problem. I can get ATH-ANC7Bs for $80-90, Panasonic RPHC720K for $90, MDR-NC500 for $150, and Monster Inspiration for $150. All of these would be good value but which one of these would be most effective at noise-cancelling. Bose is out of my budget.
My second question is impact of software music equalizers on the quality of the music. For example, I rooted my Android phone and the new custom ROM has goodies built-in such as Dolby Pro-Logic, Beats, etc...To what degree would these EQs enhance the headphone quality.
Thanks for all your help.
