Product Description
Creative Aurvana X-Fi Headphones is the world's first noise-canceling headphones equipped with X-Fi technology. The noise-cancellation feature lets you enjoy your music without unnecessary distraction. X-Fi technology breathes life into your songs by restoring detail and expanding your music and movies to surround sound. X-Fi Crystalizer technology restores the detail and vibrancy to your compressed music and movies. All the highs and lows are intelligently enhanced, ensuring you hear everything in crystal clear clarity. X-Fi CMSS-3D technology expands your stereo MP3s and digital movies into virtual surround sound over the headphones. Voices are centered in front of you and ambient sounds are moved all around you. The noise-cancellation technology significantly reduces background and environment noise by up to 90 per cent. You can even detach the audio cable and continue using the headphones to block out noise while you sleep. Large 40mm Neodymium drivers are acoustically tuned to produce an accurate and linear response, be it for music or movie enjoyment. You can now connect your headphones to the seat socket of the airplane, your home entertainment system, MP3 players, iPod and even the iPhone. You can easily place the phones and all the bundled accessories into the included travel case and bring it along with you wherever you go!

 A dream for airplane travelers November 27, 2008
Excellent sound, great bass reproduction. Noise cancelling function is amazing, specially in an airplane, when I recently bought these phones I had to fly near the turbine of the airplane, It was terrible just trying to sleep due to high noise, then I turned on my earphones and the sound of the turbine almost disappeared!! like magic. Also an excellent choice to reduce ambient sound when working in the office or in house. Of course noise reduction is not 100% eliminated, results are amazing but if you use them in a low noise room you will notice a very low white-noise sound that I guess is a natural response originated from the internal microphones, so creative: You stil have room for improvement...

I did not like the sound range and clarity. The special features were also disappointing. I bought the Audio-Technica ANC7 and am very satisfied with its quality.

used them about 10 times on flights
the noise cancelling just suddenly stopped working after 6 months , for no apparent reason
but while they worked they were comfortable and provided good quality sound and noice cancelling
i'm now left sadly with expensive headphones with no noise cancelling

I ordered these headsets only 7 days before a cross country flight. They were delivered within 4 days, in time for my flight. They worked great. There were several toddlers on the plane, crying, whining, and just generally being annoying and the Aurvana NC headsets blocked it all! They are well worth the peace and quiet I experienced. I am looking forward to many more uses.

I have had a set of the original BOSE NC headphones for many years and they are finally starting to deteriorate and getting a deep buzzing sound sounds a bit like a ground short. This old version has the external battery box and on off switch. I picked them up at the San Francisco airport and used them on one of those Embriar 180 turbo prop outfits United flies which are very loud. The sound of these off my IPOD is better than the old Bose ones due to the X-Fi. I would characterize the Aurvana as having more of an audiophile quality as opposed to a rock your socks. These headphones don't seem to have the same volume level that I was able to get from my old Bose headphones. So if you are a more discriminating listener and enjoy the nuances in the music I would recommend these over the Bose.
