    Definitely great set of headphones. Been enjoying sound quality. However out of the box you will need to play with the eq to get the perfect sound for you. Noise cancellation is really great on this compared to my old bose.

    Sound is amazing and the noise canceling does a pretty good job. Doesn't block everything out but I don't think that technology exists yet. Using the noise canceling while listening to music makes me feel like I'm in a soundproof room within the office.
