I'd been laboring under the impression these last few years that the whole 'noise cancelling' thing was a gimmick - then a friend thrust her Bose NC headphones on me for a trip.
I was amazed.
But at $300 the Bose units were just too pricey for me. I waited a while and bought my PXC150 with the Bose experience firmly in mind.
Comments: The tubular battery pack/control unit is a little clunky. Yes, the earcups don't envelope the whole ear, but rather sit on the ears. But the PXC150 has in my judgement 80% of the effectiveness of the Bose unit for 1/3 the cost. They work well and they are less bulky than the Bose units. They have a quality feel (as do the Bose) and it's just plain fun to put them on in a noisy restaurant, a clattering diesel, or any row higher than 24 in an MD80, and sit there like a grinning idiot flicking the on/off switch and marveling at the difference it makes.
An Ipod and decent NC headphones like the Bose or Sennheiser units can transform the business traveler's life....

i like the sound, crips high's and mid, not a lot of bass, but sounds very nice, however, this baby is going back because the three drawbacks:
1) it's a mini headphone, my ear hurts after wearing if for extended time, this is more apparent if I compare it with my other headphones.
2) the noise cancellation unit is a pain, make the headphone only useful i I am stationary.
3) uses 2 AAA batteries, the noise cancellation is marginal and cost $$, and gives a slight hiss sound when turned on, which is sometimes annoying when between songs.
biggest issues is the earcup too small, also the ugly bad design of the noise cancellation unit....

Bought this for a trip to Europe, as the sound of the jet engines is very distressing. Cannot believe what a difference they make. My only complaint is that the design could be better in that they could fold down to a smaller design as I have seen other noise cancelling headphones do....
