Top Noise Cancelling Headphones

I bought this one mainly for using on airplanes. When it is on my ear, I feel like sitting in a Lexus 430 cruising on smooth freeway. The sound quality on airline audio is also good, warm and well balanced. On my ipod, I set the equalizer to "flat", and every thing is good. The build quality is also good, the same league as my Mac Book pro. This is one of my best purchases.

A lot of research went into my decision to buy this noise cancelling headphones. I own a pair of Sony's which block out a lot of noise, but not all of it, and they are very hot to wear on long flights from the US to Europe and Great Britain.

The Bose has terrific sound, blocks out all noise and I can wear them for hours with no pressure discomfort or heat issues. I can really enjoy the music experience and they make quite a bit of difference when listening to audio-books.

I will admit to owning a LOT of Bose products, which influenced my buying decision. I know others have complained about the quality of the headphone construction. This has not been my experience, and I have owned mine for 7 months.

I also will agree with reviewer's complaints that they are too expensive, but all Bose products are expensive.
