Just wondering if they adjust for smaller heads?? Can't find the answer anywhere!

While not a Bose fan at all, I have to take exception here. Bose noise reducing headphones (Quiet Comfort series) are still the standard by which all other active noise cancellation headphones are measured. These aren't noise cancelling per se, but I see where the OP was going.

Speaking of, the writeup makes a point. Did anybody see a review in which the noise isolation of these was addressed? How quiet will they be on the aircraft? Will I not hear the screaming kid, or will I be wishing Boeing installed an air lock on 767s.

I did see this winner in the giz review. "Wearing them makes you feel like you're resting your head between Sofia Vergara's chest and Kim Kardashian's backside." I'm not sure if this is erotic or nauseating. Or both.

EDIT: On the gdgt meta reviews, they get 8.0/10 from users for noise isolation, and 9.6/10 from the critics. So pretty good, in other words.

Can we get overnight shipping on these? I would love to take them on a plane flight Thursday.

I agree

LOL. Its true. And how did you know I was just about to request Free Bird?

Actually, Marty Panzer wrote many of his songs.

That said, I have tried these out (albeit briefly) at the Apple store, and they are pretty fantastic. They definitely beat the crap out of the Beats line.

And at $75 including shipping, these really are a steal. Wish I wasn't in school right now...

While you were at the Apple Store - Did/Will they work with an iPad 2?

Being sonic does make them way better for sound.

I tried ultra-sonic headphones once... don't waste your time; couldn't hear a thing.

I agree. Where is the mic?

Can someone tell me where the mic is?

Thanks

The mic is on the cable.

THIS x 1000.

The Sony v6 cans are possibly the best value in headphones ever, and routinely kick the a$$ (ears?) off of way higher priced cans.

I have had lots of headphones, and these don't seem to measure up. ONLY 20 Hz with 40mm diaphragms? Come on!

SOME REVIEWS

"Audiophiles wanted! I wanna know how these compare to high-end Audio-Technicas and Bose "
Oh no you didn't!

linkdude64 wrote:Audiophiles wanted! I wanna know how these compare to high-end Audio-Technicas and Bose headphones in term of sound quality...I don't really care how they look. I'm sure many others feel the same way.

I think it's against the law in 31 states to use the words high-end and Bose in the same statement. If not it should be......

worldwidewebfeet wrote:Yes spelling does count. I have 1000 t-shirts that say "Untied We Stand", can't move them!! :-)

Put them on WOOT! I'd buy that for a dollar!

Are these "noise reduction" headphones? I listen to piano jazz and classical music on airplanes, and need a lot of ambient noise reduction to get the detail in the music.

acianni wrote:Actually, Marty Panzer wrote many of his songs.

Yeah, but
Marty Panzer has not been alive forever.
Marty Panzer did not write the very first song.
Marty Panzer is not the music.

Call me crazy, but I'm in love with the Muppet style Dre/DeLaRenta headphones. I would rock those so hard.

Srsly.

I bought some "because" they look like pajamas :-)

While these phones don't have active noise cancellation, they do provide very good isolation from noise. In addition, they are the most comfortable headphones I've ever used, bar none. In particular, the headband is very well padded. When you're bald like me, that's important. ;-)

And to answer an earlier question, they're very comfortable when worn over glasses. I've watched three-hour movies while wearing these phones without feeling any discomfort--and that's something I can't say about any other headphones I've owned (and I've tried a lot over the years).

Sound quality? Hey, I'm no golden-ears audiophile, but they sound excellent to me for both music and videos. I paid $150 for a pair of these a couple of months ago, and they were worth it. At this price, they're a steal.

Have a set of these,took a shower this morning and just put these on to ran out to get the newspaper in the driveway. None of the neighbors thought they were pajamas!My court date is April 19th.

Ahhh yes but if you were wearing these as an accessory to your pajamas there would not be an issue. Furthermore 1) I don't get the paper and 2) I don't care what my neighbors think.

They are just over priced!

Whatever happened to two-fer Tuesday?
Was that a common woot incentive or did I just dream that up?

Seems all I use Woot for nowadays is finding headphones.

but when you are addicted to headphones like I am you are glad to have woot around.

I love music. Any form of expression is enlightening. Music is part of my everyday life. Anything that can trap me in the sound and feeling of a song or anything that can enhance that is worth looking into.

Well, they certainly look nice and toasty. I could use one of these right now. I came down with the flu yesterday and with these I could listen to music while preventing the chills at the same time.

You're getting 2, a left and a right!!

This is perhaps the most perfect woot! ever. I've been looking for a good head-sound device, sound quality wise, that was also especially comfortable; headphones always hurt my ears after a little while, and even ear buds get uncomfortable 1hour+. Pretty much limits me to speakers...hopefully these are as comfy as they look. I can deal with the less than insane bass, if they sound crisp and don't hurt my ears.

Honestly, I bought some cheapo online 15 dollar prescription flex titanium glasses that work with any pair of cans, being thin and completely pliable.
