Highly Recommended
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A plus. This product lives up to its reputation. Sound is terrific and it does, indeed, cancel outside sound----until you press on a Headphone when outside noise can be heard. Sweet gear.

Posted .Hi TanishkaK, it's great to hear that you appreciate the feel and sound quality. However, I'm sorry to hear that they sometimes cause headaches. Please make sure that the headphones are not too tight. Sometimes, adjusting the headband or the position of the ear cups can make a significant difference. If you are using the headphones for extended periods, try taking short breaks to give your ears and head some rest.
