Q: QuestionI know these are wireless headphones, but is there an option to connect a cord? I travel a lot and need headphones I can plug in to a plane entertaininment system

Asked 8 years ago by Cord.

• A:Answer Absolutely! They come with the cord/cable to connect to normal headphone jacks, and they still work nicely. If the battery is charged then the active noise cancelling will still work, and it's pretty nice when you're around others. I use this option on hand-held gaming systems, or when I don't want to connect to BT.

• A:Answer If you are going to sweat at all, these are not the most comfortable. The ear pads are pretty tight to keep out ambient noise and help with NC. It gets hot and sweaty relatively quickly even when not working out.

Q: QuestionI have shied away from the Sony MDR 1000x because they won't connect to two devices at the same time, like the Bose will, so if you get a phone call while you are using your laptop, you have to disconnect to answer with them, is it same issue with these?

Asked 9 years ago by Luis.

• A:Answer They don't really carry this model for some reason, but I found them online on their website when I was looking for their prices (note: I originally found them, and the deal on Amazon.com). I went in and spoke with a few employees, and they didn't really know why it wasn't stocked.

Q: QuestionHow long is the battery life?

This question was asked about the related product: Sony - h.ear MDR-100ABN Over-the-Ear Wireless Headphones - Charcoal black

• A:Answer I'm not sure what Will is doing with their pair of headphones but these are good for about 20 hours of audio playback when using Bluetooth and with noise cancellation activated. That's at a listening volume of about 50%. I usually listen at 65-70% and they still last about 18.5 hours before needing to be recharged.
