All,
I am new to the forum here. I thought I'd ask this question to the group here to get some feedback. I am in market for a noise cancelling headphone (again!) and want to know which ones to get.
I travel quite a bit; almost every week and mostly cross country. Right now from CA to MI (and some times to IL). I purchased Bose QC15 a year ago and used it quite a bit. The QC15s were great; especially Noise Cancelling. It made the engine noise pretty low and the music sounded great. The important thing was I was able to listen to music in low volume.
Unfortunately, I lost my QC15 a few weeks back in Phoenix airport. Not sure if I left it in my flight or if fall from my bag. It is gone; I tried to trace it, but no luck
I have been putting off buying another headphone for about 4 weeks now. But in the last 4 weeks of travel, I have realized how much I miss noise cancelling headphones.
The question now is: which one do I get? I loved Bose, but a few concerns:
1) It cause pressure in my ear, that I was never able to get used to.
2) I have not tried any other Noise cancelling headphones so not sure if QC15 is the best option.
3) Apart from noise cancelling, I also would like to get a headphone that sounds good.
I did a bit of research and found that Sennheiser PXC 450 may be the best bet in terms of noise cancelling and sound quality. I know beats is becoming quite popular, but it does not have noise cancelling.
Can you please let me know which one I should buy? Have any of you tried both and compared the two?
Should I buy the QC15 again or Sennheiser PXC 450? or is there something else better?
Please let me know!
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Dave
