 Good for what you get and one other benefit October 9, 2008
WEll made. Also, the use of a removable plug cord and not just jack (that yoiu can replace if it gets damaged without paying for new headphones which I've had to do with other products) makes perfect sense. Not only did this product do what it said (not all products do!), but it had one added benefit. I had problems hearing some of the movies on my ipod. When you turn on the noise-cancelling function, the volume increases on the movies as if an amplifier kicked up the volume about 15%. It's a nice addition to a good product.
 Not for me October 8, 2008

I bought these and tried them over several days. Not for me, I'm afraid. First, they are really uncomfortable. They simply cannot be adjusted to your ears or, dare I say it, to the shape of your head. The sound with the noise canceling off is simply terrible. With the noise canceling on, the sound is better, but nothing to shout about. Nonetheless, what bothers me most is the simple discomfort of these headphones. They do not adjust to your ears. Ultimately, they're simply uncomfortable.
 Good value for the price. October 8, 2008
I work in a noisey manufacturing environment. The company provides both ear plugs and ear muff type hearing protection but these make conversation difficult, and become uncomfortable. These digital headphones allow me to hear audio on my computer which makes it possible to take recertification lessons that I would previously have had to wait until the room was quiet during a shutdown. They also stay comfortable during extended wear. I think my money was well spent for these headphones.
Incredible At Any Price October 7, 2008
This will not be a technical evaluation with all of the specs.... If you need that, go to the Audio-Tecnica website.
I was in a position to purchase the Bose QC-2 headphones and then I started reading the reviews. Sure the sound was typical Bose and highly praised, but wait... They fell apart within two years even with minimal use??? Not for my $300 bucks!
I started the search for a comparable headset and it kept ending at the Audio Tecnica ATH-ANC7 headphones. Not only did Amazon have them discounted for over half the list price, but that price was $200 bucks less then the Bose. I decided to ordered them through Amazon (Electronics Expo) and they arrive in one piece three days before the promised delivery date. Packaging was acceptable and there was no shipping damage.
Removing them from the box and putting in the battery, I was ready to go. The accessories are minimal but exactly what I needed. There is an airline plug, a cable and a 1/4" phone plug. The case is perfect for travel and the minuscule AAA (provided) offers up 60 hours of listening. Very good start...
They are well made and fit very comfortably. The construction is solid and I have not read of any breakage with the frames. Mine are too new to tell.
Since my job involves a tremendous amount of travel, I needed everything this headset offered. (The ANR was top of the list as I started my search.) The sound of screaming kids is a distant memory now on those 9 hour flights. The movies sound wonderful and my iPod Touch sounds amazing. The sound is well balanced with not too much of any one frequency and the ANR works extremely well.
I would highly recommend these to anyone thinking of dropping $300 bucks on a pair of Bose. For their price, you could purchase almost three pair of these!
Headphones surpassed all expectations October 6, 2008
All I need to say is that the noise canceling on these headphones is very good. I could barely hear any noise or passengers when I'm using them on the bus. Sound quality is very excellent too, every single note is reproduced faithfully. I don't think you can do much better than this, its Bose quality without the price.
