Noise cancellation really not that good.

The Q Adapt has a pass-through mode that allows in outside sounds at the touch of a button which actually negates the passive noise cancelling just having something in your ear canal causes

That being said, they block out outside noise very well

These headphones provide excellent noise cancellation with minimal size.

I would definitely buy products from Libratone again and would recommend these headphones to anyone who needs great noise cancelling earphones!!

On top of the superior sound and noise cancelling ability, the deep base, solid mid tone, and high's, they also provide rugged durability with the braided cord, and makes you feel like you won't tear or rip these when putting them in your pocket or if you bend your wires too much

returned them and bought the Phiaton BY 220 noise cancelling earbugs for roughly the same price, and they are fantastic - noise reduction under the same situations was 95% --- so much reduction it was actually a little eerie on how quiet things were

The app will let you select the level of noise canceling you personally like

The adjustable noise cancellation feature is awesome, I can't hear ambient noise around me when I put this on.

The app is the key to optimal noise canceling control

We were thrilled to have a better noise cancelling headphone

The added feature of CityMix Adjustable Active Noise Cancellation in the Libratone Q Adapt gives you the ability to not only tune out 90%-100% of environmental noise where no external sound is desired but also the added ability to only tune out 25% or 50% of surrounding noise

In addition to achieving great noise-cancelling in an "ear bud" type design, Libratone has also made real strides in quieting the environmental noises that are picked up by the headsets microphone during a phone call

After only two months, one of the earbuds started making loud static noises and the earphones were unusable.

The Bose have such excellent noise cancellation, noise canceling means you can't hear anything but at level 4 i can hear everything

I've never had noise canceling earphones before so when I first plugged these in I sat and played with the noise control and was shocked with how well it blocked out noise

I own Sony MDR-1000X noise canceling over-ear headphones (fantastic for long plane trips, great sound quality, very good noise cancellation)

the Q Adapt offer an adaptive noise cancelling microphone so when you are on an important conference call in a busy airport your call will still be crystal clear

Good quality wired noise cancelling ear-buds.

Very good noise-canceling

Love the adjustable noise cancelation levels and the pass through mode for biking in traffic

Not as loud as I was hoping for but noise is good

I've never had active adjustable noise cancellation before, and it makes a huge difference

The cord rubbing on anything transmits distracting and unwelcome noise

The noise canceling worked like a charm and even helped drown out the sounds of the passenger snoring next to me!

my JBL Reflect Aware's are still in the return period, so I am sending these back now that I have found Q Adapt!One final tip: if you buy directly from Libratone.com, you get a 30-day, no questions asked, money-back guarantee they don't offer if you buy elsewhere, plus they don't charge sales tax so the price is actually cheaper!Bottom line: If you're looking for the best noise cancelling on the market today, bar none, combined with very good sound quality, ultimate noise cancellation performance and convenience, all in a very small, lightweight package, then Libratone Q Adapt is for you!

It sounded fine on my end, but the person I was talking to would hear either a super loud wind noise when there was hardly any wind, or there would be this annoying tapping sound.

One thing I had not considered while shopping for ANC earbuds was the importance of adjustable noise cancelling

Comfortable with good noise reduction

Excellent product, good sound, reasonable noise cancellation, very compact with no batteries, external box or anything else
