These headphones are pretty nice. They cancel out alot of the noise, I had some f16's flying over last night and it canceled out the roar of the engines. I think they will do the trick for what I bought them for which is beeing able to hear what I'm watching on an airplane. I'm sure this is better out there but for the price these can't be beat. They are comfortable (i wore them for 4 hours last night and barely knew they were on). They are portable with a good pouch to store them in. I'm happy with the purchase.
