    Amazing sound quality and noise cancellation! Bought them because I fly a lot for work and they’re great for blocking out all the noise in airports and on the plane. Highly recommend, if you have extra money laying around.

    I have suffered for years from the extremely loud bass music from my neighbors. These are the ONLY headphones that take away the noise. Literally life changing and worth every single penny I spent on them. My husband has the earbud version and has had the same experience. WORTH IT.

    I loved these headphones while testing them out on location. I have been contemplating buying these for a while and was waiting for a sale to purchase it. I got tired of using my airpods and they would pop out of my ears quite often. I like the feel of the over the ear headphones. I also enjoy the ambient change in different environments. Good investment.
