Taken the plunge on these

Really didn't want to spend silly money but reviews seem good...lets see how they are when they come tomorrow.

They've got good reviews too! MLW was mentioning I should get some BT headphones for the TV. Will look into these [emoji106] at this price.

Still dithering about noise cancelling ones though... [emoji848]

OK, I know this might seem ridiculous but I bought the following for my two kids last Christmas. My son is 15 and plays all sorts of music at all sorts of volumes. He absolutely loves them - says they?re the best he?s had. I?ve listened and they sound fantastic but I?m not the best judge!

Recommend Bose for the best quality, Sennheiser for best value

I wouldn't recommend AKGs though - I've had two pairs, and the sound bleed on them was absolutely awful. Maybe alright if you're at home on your own, but I wouldn't be comfortable on public transport using these

I was looking at the AKG N60NC
the other day in the sale. What HiFi 5 star and an award winner.

Currently ?99 in richer sounds:

Looking at these but the wireless ones. For the money they seem great.

I have a set of bose q25 wired version for few years, I wouldn't go on a flight without them. Thoroughly recommended.

Airpods are not really comparable

No one said they were, if you read it you'll see it was in reply to Banos' post not the noise cancelling topic images-1.jpeg

I think I am after the noise cancelling. These are probably going to be used for train commutes during winter. And maybe occasionally for quiet work time when there's background noise. So there's always going to be outside noise anyway.

I'm not an audiophile.

See a guy on the tube this morning with ear defenders on and wires coming probably from his in ear phones! [emoji16]

That's 2.99 for the big orange ear defenders and whatever for the headphones!

Ok it's not active noise cancelling. But good idea lol

Get some AirPods and you won't be bothered with wires Unknown.jpeg

Bose products have always been worth the money in my experience. Great quality and they last.

I bought some of these last month - https://www.bose.co.uk/en_gb/product...l#v=qc30_black

They are amazing, my commute is so much nicer now. Pricey at ?249, but well worth it. Battery lasts over ten hours too.

Sony, Bose and Sennheiser pretty much run the noise canceling market.

Think hard if you want noise canceling though as you can IMO get better headphones for less money without it.... Obviously the qualitative assessment of better means nothing if you NEED the noise canceling.

But look for brands like; Shure, AKG, Grado, Bayerdynamic, Audio-Technica and the previously mentioned Sennheiser and you won't be far off.

I personally stay away from Bose, purely because I won't support any audio manufacturer that refuses to publish the specs of their equipment.

The new model Sony XM3 are not discounted near me. Surprise... But I did get to try them. Impressive noise cancelling!
