Awesome headphone!

If you want the best pair of noise cancelling buy Sony XM5's.

Solid headphones, some minor gripes.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid headphones. Great sound quality, noise cancellation, and battery life. They are a bit heavy and I don't like the case or that they don't fold up. All in all, great purchase but might be a little overpriced for what you get.
