Finally, there is now a serious alternative to the BOSE noise reduction headphones......
Having tried MANY NR phones , these and the BOSE have been the only ones that dramatically reduced the ambient noise levels.
Other lower priced phones, just did not come anywhere close, on paper at least you would think that any two NR would cut out the same amount of noise, but actually the differences are vast.
With the ATs, just like the BOSE, when you switch on the NR circuit it is like someone has placed 2 cushions over your ears......lower priced phones by comparison simply just cut out a little low freq. sound, the difference is huge, which is why BOSE keep on selling their phones at the £ 300 price range.
So to sum up, these are 100% as effective as the BOSE in reducing noise, they are seriously effective and dramatic in this dept.
Sound quality ? V.good, tight non boomy bass, and nice clear sound, less artificial sounding than the BOSE, but either would be more than good enough for the intended application ( Planes, trains, cars, coaches etc )....none of these phones are true high end audiophile quality, for that look at open back Sennheisers, or similar....
In terms of effective NR, these are on the same level as BOSE and SONY MDR-NC5000 phones.
Value ? Simply excellent, at 40% of the BOSE price, and offering identical NR and possibly better sound quality too, these are a relative bargain......Take a look at the Sony 5000 models too, they offer excellent NR too, but the sound isnt as good as the ATs.

I needed some noise cancelling headphones as I work near an embroidery machine which is very loud.
I borrowed some BOSE ones to see if they helped-they did,however because of price I bought the AUDIO-TECHNICA ones and WOW they are amazing-much,much better than the Bose and a third of the price!
They cancel noises leaving a slight hum of the machine in the background.
Music and the radio through my ipod sounds really clear.Percussion instruments on favourite tracks are audible,which I have never heard before.
The ear pads sit comfortably on my ears.
They come in a really posh carry case.
I can not fault this product,at all, which is rare for me as I often find some element which could be improved.
Superb product- 100% recommendation

I have used a variety of noise cancelling earphones and head phones over the years, while driving my tractor round the vineyard. These are by far and way the best so far without breaking the bank. Being over ear they are more effective in keeping the noise at bay but not to the point where I can't tell if something needs attention, while the music or whatever is loud and clear. The optional short cord is just the right length so doesn't snag on things when climbing in and out of the tractor. The padding on both ear cups and head band is comfortable; and the case is convenient to use and has room for the mp3 player. All in all just what I wanted.

Good noise cancelling.
The headphones fits quite tightly so can't really wear it for long. Good noise isolation and cancelling though. For the price, it is pretty decent. Good service by amazon.
