 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.
No more NOISY airplane rides - PLUS fantastic music on the computer! October 5, 2008
Honestly I thought all this "noise cancelling" headphones stuff was just pure HYPE - but NOT SO! Our first use of these amazing headphones came on the airplane (had a 3 leg trip about 12 hours total trip time). The plane didn't "seem" that noisy at first, but we thought, hey we bought them for the plane, let's see what they can do. Put them on and turned on the noise canceling feature - and WOW! We were truly amazed, and just to be sure of the difference, we'd take them away from our ears from time to time to see the change. The last leg of the trip was an American Airlines Eagle (puddle hopper" plane) - and it had a horrible roar. Even with these amazing headphones, it was still really annoying, but WAY worse without them. Fortunately that flight was only 45 minutes long.
WELL worth the money spent, and when used with the music on the plane, SO MUCH better than the airplane headphones that you'll want to feel sorry for the poor sods who are using the airplane headphones! Then there's what they do for your music on the computer or portable devices!!!
I can't recommend them enough. My ears and my sanity thank Audio-Technica.
Perfect for airline travel October 5, 2008
Purchased these headphones for long-distance air travel. They were great in cutting out most of the jet engine noise, while still allowing me to converse with my wife. Also good for watching the movies. I love the travel case with its pouch for storage of cord and adapter plugs. All very light weight and comfortable fit.
I suppose cancelling 100% of undesirable noise is impossible since some noise vibrations enter the ear canal via jaw bones and skull.
I will never fly again without these headphones. Great purchase and value.
 Good for studying October 4, 2008
Now, these headphones don't eliminate screaming from a 2-year old, but do a great job with eliminating TV noise and constant and consistent noise. Work wonderfully in airports, on a plane, in a crowded place. I bought them to help me study for nursing school with my three young children hanging around and having to sneak in studying while waiting during piano lessons, swim lessons, soccer practice, etc. The earphones are very comfortable for long wear. The only reason I don't give them a full 5 stars is how big they are, bulky. They're hard to carry around in your purse/backpack. But they do an excellent job for the price and were much more reasonable than their more expensive competitors.
