3.0 out of 5 stars Good sound but many drawbacks, 25 Jan 2008
By K. Pankhurst "Dragonfly" (Kent, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought a set of these over a year ago and mainly for travelling - train every working day, flights a couple of times a year.
Noise cancelling is pretty good - when flying it is most noticably effective but also pretty good at background train noise - though less good at higher frequencies. Sound is also good and they are comfortable enough to wear for a couple of hours without problems.
Now the drawbacks:
1. The wire appears to be fitted with some sort of self-tangling mechanism which means that no matter how carefully you put them away the wires will be totally tangled when you get them out.
2. They pick up mobile phone noise on the train - I get an almost continuous "dat dat dat dat dit dit dat" noise in the background.
3. The battery pod is very big and heavy and also quite microphonic.

To summarise: - I'd recommend them to people for home use and for the occasional traveller, but for a frequent traveller on buses or trains I'd advise you keep searching.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding piece of kit, 19 Aug 2007
By Wendy Jones "wjones7423" (Southampton, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I recently bought these from amazon after I read a review in an IPOD magazine. I am glad I spent the money on them. I have hearing problems and did not want to ruin my hearing further listening to an IPOD with teh volume turned right up. When I have these in I can turn the volume right down and still hear music or books very well. I have used them walking on noisy streets, in planes and on long coach journeys and I have to say they worked perfectly in all situations. All my friends have tried them and now want to buy them. They fold up fairly flat and come in a case which also holds an IPOD. I would recommend anyone to buy these, especially from amazon as these are the cheapest place I found.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent headphones/excellent noise cancellation, 18 Dec 2006
By R. Thomas "triggerfish999" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Wow! I bought these primarily to wear in a noisy open-plan office. Bose were too expensive so having ummed and arred I went for these. I looked at the more expensive PXC300 version but really couldn't see what the difference is, except the price of course. The noise cancellation is quite remarkable. Switch it on and all the background rumble of fans/photocopier/shredder/loud conversations and corridor meetings disappears. It is like sitting in a quiet room; concetration is once more possible. Then plug in to sound source (Sony MP3 and/or PC) and you can hear everything very clearly. Great bass response - though better on the PC than the MP3 player - I guess because the PC has more juice (MP3 is fine though).
The phones are small but fit snugly over the ears. The padding/quality is what you would expect from Sennheisser (excellent).
I was worried about interference but no problems so far. Incidentally the battery pack is about the size of a white board marker, or a tube of Rolos and not really the nuisance I thought it might be.
What a great piece of kit - the 'phones fold up (flat - the ear pieces swivel) and stow in the supplied zip pouch, which comes with jack adaptors (6mm to larger jack + double jack for some aircraft). Marvellous.
