 Best Buy for the money October 6, 2008
I recently purchased these headphones for my wife who travels a good bit. I held off purchasing them for myself. On our last trip we were on a regional jet that was very noisy. My older NC headphones did not remove enough of the noise. I used the HC-500 and was so impressed that I ordered a pair for myself.
I am very satisfied with the HC500. My wife says that they are equal to or better than the more expensive Bose.
 expensive ear muffs October 6, 2008
Liked the headphones for the first 120 days, but then one side quit working and the warranty is only 90 days... expensive ear muffs.
Awesome but not the best October 3, 2008
These headphones are very comfortable and well worth $100. These are NOT Bose quality but that's what you pay the $300 for. The quality of the music is lacking but I bought these for the noise canceling part. I use these for long car rides, listening to EVPs when I have ghost hunts, and listening to lectures.
NOT good at all for lawn care. October 3, 2008
I bought these just to test them out. Most reviews here are very favorable for canceling airplane noise, and for me, although in a VERY limited test of that (planes traveling above me), they totally eliminated the noise. But I bought these to cancel noise of my lawn equipment machinery. In that area, they are terrible. An inexpensive pair of Peltor (or similar) earmuffs is much more effective for that kind of usage.
Deciding I wanted to return them, Amazon was FANTASTIC at taking them back and crediting my account. All delivery charges were paid for, including UPS picking the package up at my door.
Fantastic performance at a great price! September 30, 2008
I purchased these headphones for an overseas trip. They made the roar of the engines disappear almost completely. The sound quality is excellent. It's just too bad that the technology on the airplane doesn't come anywhere near the quality of the headset, but the headset helps make up for it - now you can actually hear the dialogue in the in-flight movies! I see no reason to pay twice as much for the Bose headphones when these perform up to par and are comfortable and convenient.
