Quite nice on planes.

1323916 2013-01-23 20:47:00 New York Times (www.nytimes.com) (which I think their staff use earphones) has good listing/reviews of noise cancelling brands, which includes a suitably priced MDR by Sony as Nikit07 mentions. There is a similar specd but cheaper Panasonic RP-HC720. However nowhere near market leader, it seems Bose. kahawai chaser (3545)

1323919 2013-01-24 05:00:00 Do they absolutely need to be noise canceling? Sound Quality usually suffers with NC. Alex B (15479)
