 Headphone covers are foams - not vinyl November 10, 2008
I wish description indicated type of headphone covers. Headphone covers are fragile foams. With $35 price tag, I was expecting more durable and easy to clean vinyl covers. Two weeks after purchase, Target offered same item at $29. I couldn't figure out how to request price match refund from Amazon. If Amazon indeed has this option, it must be well hidden somewhere.
 good buy November 1, 2008
The headphones do a great job suppressing most of the engine noise when I fly commercial.

I have this product only for a couple of days, and I bought this because it is cheap, has active noise cancelling feature and it is from Sony. And I am not disappointed. The sound quality is excellent. I run it with my iPod and with my computer... both sounds surprisingly great... in all frequencies. And it looks great too, and fits very well.
My only concern is the noise cancelling feature. The active noise cancelling works very well for low frequencies, as advertised. But, I get a persistent hissing sound all the time the noise cancelling is turned on, which is annoying. The manual describes that the hissing is normal for quite environments, but I get the hissing everywhere, quiet or not.
But, overall, for the price, the phones with its sound quality, stylish look and great noise cancelling capabilities, is an excellent buy for the price.
Head Phones October 30, 2008
The head phones were clean & in excellent condition. I guess I expected then to cancel all the out side noise & they didn't.
 Ineffective October 29, 2008
There is a slight reduction in regular, low-frequency noise as in air travel, but these are not nearly as effective as Bose or Audio-Technica. Additionally, these are very picky about how they are positioned on your ears -- it has to be Just So to work.
