Reviews around value (4.28 of 5)

  • This unit is very good value, performing as well as my old Bose Quiet Comfort 2.
  • Wouldn't be without them on flights ... good value and excellent audio quality ... superior to Bose.
  • After a while of usage, my ears start to hurt as they're pinched against my head
  • They offer unbelievable value and you're simply not going to beat them without spending at least three times as much.
  • Anyhow, I like these fine and think they're a good value.

  • Really well performing, comforable noise canceling headphones for a great price.

Reviews around product (4.07 of 5)

  • Usually most products break within a few days due to the cord shorting out.
  • So I have owned these for about a year and a half and as of the time writing this post, I am conflicted as to whether or not I would recommend this product to a friend
  • All in all, good product, I wish they were a little more comfortable and had more length adjustment.
  • I love this product, its not as expensive as the BOSE but almost as good!
  • Top notch product at a fraction of the price of similar noise canceling headphones

Reviews around cancellation (3.78 of 5)

  • If you're willing to spend this much to get good active noise cancellation, save your money and get some actual quality headphones
  • Good sound quality and noise cancellation for the price
  • These sound pretty good but they fit horribly, if you have a larger head these will hurt as they dont stretch out that big.

Reviews around case (3.51 of 5)

  • The case is really nice though and will do a good job of protecting the headphones when not in use
  • In case there is any doubt, the headphones have never been dropped or otherwise taken a beating (these were exclusively for using at work so they have not traveled around at all).
  • It's a hard case, so you can be confident that your headphones are well protected and won't get smashed up in a backpack
  • and I have been really good about keeping them in the protective case.
  • the hard case is a bit big, but does the job of protecting these headphones

Reviews around switch (1.95 of 5)

  • The switch on the cord does not work with my Android phone
  • Or make sure the other models have solid switch mechanisms and sturdy ear

Reviews around seam (1.58 of 5)

  • About six months in, the seams started to split (see picture)
  • This was the most frustrating pair of headphones as they intermittently worked with decreasing frequency
  • These are great headphones and work as described but the one drawback is the seaming of the fabric covering the foam of each ear began to come lose and open only after a few months of using.
  • The seams on the earpads split and the foam expanded to be big enough to make the headphones unusable
  • I'm trying to replace the AT headphones but noticed that the general rating on their newer NC headphones do not look as good as for older models

Reviews around static (1.35 of 5)

  • This was the most frustrating pair of headphones as they intermittently worked with decreasing frequency
  • These sound pretty good but they fit horribly, if you have a larger head these will hurt as they dont stretch out that big.
  • The sound is boomy and muddled, but once the cancellation is turned on the sound comes to life and is great.2) the audio cables the headphones ship with are incredibly susceptible to electrical interference when the noise reduction is on, leading to intermittent crackling and static in the sound
  • that is has horrible static when using noise reduction, and on a cell network.
  • In the rare moments that the static isn't overwhelming, the sound is okay, but not amazing.

Reviews around plastic (1.34 of 5)

  • Great sound but the plastic will crack through normal, everyday use
  • This was the most frustrating pair of headphones as they intermittently worked with decreasing frequency
  • I'm trying to replace the AT headphones but noticed that the general rating on their newer NC headphones do not look as good as for older models
  • My wife's set, the plastic broke off on one side just above the pad, where you would adjust the fit.
  • They worked extremely well for about 3/4 of this distance (lots of movies and music) and still work well now if you can live without the cheap plastic on the stem that broke about a year ago (150,000 miles traveled).

Reviews around environment (1.31 of 5)

  • Headphones proved to effectively block airplane noise as well as dreaded open-office environment
  • I have used these to play music in a noisy open office environment and they really help me concentrate on my work
  • If I want a really quiet environment at an airport I put in my normal ear plugs then add the headset.

  • Not the best sounding headphones I ever used, but in a noisy environment they really helped to improve the listening experience.
