Who knew the world could be so quiet?! June 30, 2008

I have been looking for a decent pair of noise-cancelling cans for a while now. On my daily commute I listen to talking books, podcasts and a variety of music - but I end up missing large chunks of soundtrack or dialogue everytime a bus goes by.
Sony MDR-NC60 High Quality Noise Cancelling Headphones were reviewed in T3 magazine and they highly recommended them. The price may seem steep but trust me, these bad boys will change your life! There is a huge difference in the quality of sound when you turn the noise cancelling on. I was very impressed. I even turned the volume down - they were THAT good!
Oh, and I was shocked when I took them off at how loud the world is!
Buy these today. You're buying quality and, in my opinion, the price tag is justifiable!

Having had three pairs of Sennheiser PXC-250's - each breaking after around a year's use, I decided it was time to try something new. Scouring the web I'd found some great reviews for these new Sony headphones. Hat's off to Amazon, I paid for standard post and they came to me via a third party seller in less than 24 hours.
Put simply - stunning. The clarity and detail from an Ipod was beyond my expectation. Songs that I've known for thirty years sound new again with details evident that I'd never previously heard. There's space in the mix for so much more instrumentation whilst vocal clarity is as good as you'd hope for.
I travel by train and London Underground. Now let's get this straight - they don't cancel outside noise out all together - I'm skeptical if any do, but what they do very well is to reduce ambient noise to a calm hum which is then placed well back behind the music; and because the clarity and definition of the music is so good, you don't really notice it.
These headphones have made me excited about music again and I'm rushing back into the depth of my music library to discover new things in time wearied favourites. One hears the true textures of the studio recordings giving new depth and personalities to songs heard a thousand times.
I'd give them 10/10 but one slight little imperfection marks them down to a 9.5; when walking I can hear my footsteps knocking the headphones on my head. They can be positioned to reduce this and I'm sure the effect is different on other's heads but it's a slight flaw. However, when the quality of playback is as good as these headphones have, it's a flaw I for one can overlook. Recommended.
