    Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless – NoiseGard Adaptive Noise Cancelling, Bluetooth Headphone with Touch Sensitive Control and 30-Hour Battery Life

    • Other than wind which I think many headphones would have issues with, it provides great noise cancellation that really helps with the audio quality.
    • Better sound than QC35-Great noise cancellation - Seems on par with QC35 although I haven't done any extensive testing
    • They are versatile, can be warn most all day without too much fatigue, sound great, and adjustable noise cancellation
    • Excellent sound quality, great battery life, connects quickly and stably, great pass-through mode, great noise-cancellation
    • Great build quality, great sound (for Bluetooth), amazing noise cancellation
    • If you can tolerate disintegrating leather over time, don't mind replacing the ear cups occasionally (the QC35 crossbar is no longer leather so doesn't suffer from the same malady as my QC15), and don't you'll need adjustable noise cancellation, the Bose QC35s might be a better alternative.
    • The headphone almost perfect if only it had a good noise cancellation mechanism
    • The active/adaptive noise cancellation on these headphones is excellent
    • Bose wins for overall noise cancellation, but with a major caveat - it creates a lot of pressure around the ear to accomplish the noise cancellation
    • But on the bright side, they are still at 100% according to the optional CapTune app, which lets me choose whether I want it to tell me things by voice, just beeps, not even beeps, what level I want adaptive noise cancellation to be
    • Bose uses subtle white noise I think, to enhance their noise cancellation.
    • Sometimes I have to restart it to get the effect mode and equalizer changes to take effect, and the adaptive noise cancellation percentage has no effect on mine
    • Buy the Sennheiser HD1 and delight in spectacular sound quality with good noise cancellation
    • Much as I love the sound of the PSB’s, after 3 years of weekly flights, I’m more interested than ever in excellent noise cancellation and compact packaging in addition to high quality immersive audio
    • Some of the big pluses that come to mind are comfort, clarity, intuitive controls, great noise cancellation and sound quality
    • Very good noise cancellation+ VERY intuitive and comfortable swipe controls
    • Here is a short comparison of the two:Noise cancellation: I think the Sennheiser has better noise cancellation than the Bose
    • so i don't have to check which way to plug in the micro-USB, and further improving the noise cancellation
    • The sound cancellation is *almost* as good as the QC35's
    • The sound cancellation and snug fit work great, and so I hear
    • Though this is the very best noise cancellation I've ever found, it is not perfect.
    • Fantastic pair of headphones if you want great sound quality paired with great noise cancellation
    • The sound isolation and noise cancellation is really good, sometimes I'll just put the set on for some quiet in my noisy (people talking not machinery) work environment.
    • When I first purchased these, I was concerned that the magical noise cancellation I heard for the first time in Best Buy with the QC35 was better than these
    • If you are looking for a headphone with effective noise cancellation just stick with the Bose QC 35 (they're cheaper), they beat these
    • The adjustable noise cancellation feature was useful and the ability to turn off the Bluetooth in order to conform to FAA rules about radio transmission below 10,000' are great features
    • Excellent noise cancellation
    • I love the noise cancellation, I love the scifi controls.
    • Great headphones, good sound and awsome noise cancellation
    • I give these headphones a solid C- overall.
    • I've always heard great things about Sennheiser and the sound quality of these headphones is as good as or better than every other model I tested, including wired ones in this price range
    • Be sure to follow instructions for the Pause Play option or it won't work as
    • Brother in law recommended these to me as he is purchasing a pair of his own
    • Bass is strong – but not artificially emphasized and muddy as it is on so many other headphones
    • Then I took a call and started typing on my computer: I could hear every click as clear as if I didn't have headphones on.
    • The Bluetooth paring with my Android phone was flawless, as well as with an MP3 player.
    • Definitely a solid A from a first-time headphone buyer.
    • Sony has a pocket inside for the airplane adapter, then a mesh pocket on the outside for a cord (which I don't like as it tends to snag when you're stuffing the thing inside a bag - would have rather just had the pocket on the inside)
    • I have also noticed that the noise cancelling does not seem to be as effective as with the 550s, but I do not notice as much wind buffeting.
    • It's easily paired with multiple devices and intelligently fails over between them as they become available
    • They aren't as sensitive as an

    • and I didn’t really like them as much as I though I
