Have you made your choice? Choosing the best among the best headphones in the market is time demanding. This is a fact; if you search in the internet for a certain product you will see a lot of reviews and mostly positive remarks. Even in the magazines, most of the featured products are popular. But what do we get from the popularity? How they became popular? Is it because of the look or just because of the incidence like that product was taken by a photographer worn by a known Hollywood actor? Sounds weird, this is a trend in commerce now and will continue till the disadvantage will be felt at the consumer’s end. How to spot the right one? By looking at its price? Maybe, but most of the cheaper products are also cheap when it comes to quality. How about testing the quality? Sounds strange, no company is offering such drama as letting the buyer test the product first before paying it.

My headphones are not that popular but expensive, not that stylish in look but reliable when it comes to quality. My set of headphones is noise cancelling. As it sounds, it optimizes my music listening by reducing the ambient sounds by more or less 80%. Noise cancelling is a technology applied to the latest headphone models. But having a set of headphones with noise cancelling doesn’t necessarily mean that you will be getting the same advantage I get with my set.

Noise cancelling works better with well constructed headphones.  From the time I started using my set I never encounter inconveniences. The headband’s arc fits and sticks my head that even when I am running or jogging, I am confident that it will not lose. The principle of comfort is applied to every exterior detail of my set. I carry it anywhere I go without adding weight on my luggage and its foldable. Headphones from my friend I barrowed once were good enough but short off bass. Bass is very important, without it music will be boring or lifeless. I’ve been benefiting so much from my set of noise cancelling headphones. I carry it in the office and abroad. I can listen to my favorite songs despite the disruptive noise of the jets and cars. I have learned that my set is made from the manufacturer that pioneered noise cancelling technology. I purchased this one in the online market. My set of headphones is called Sennheiser PXC 350.

To tell you the truth I purchased this one not knowing first how it will perform and how sturdy it is. I was just impressed by the look and the elegance that goes along with the clean color, personally I love white. But in the long run from using I have noticed something odd, something that asks me if I have gained my money back. The issue I am going to bring with you is the usual issue that some users of this set are clamoring. To be fair, Sony MDRNC7 is in general doing well as to audio quality is concerned. Features of this set are up to date and can be considered as high end product. Back to the issue, although the flaws are just minor in nature but they really matter to me. The headband, I guess is not made to stand pressure.  By merely looking at it you will realized what I have in mind. Headband is so thin and its flexibility is poor it’s like it breaks easily. The literal headphones do not cover the entire ears, the shapes are circular (not a problem), the sizes are not standard and the unnecessary protrusion. All these combined makes this set uncomfortable to wear.

The good side of Sony MDRNC7 is all in the audio. Sounds can be heard clearly with or without turning the noise cancelling on. Neodymium magnet is embedded on this set that is why the sound is so crisp and powerful. Sony MDRNC7 is a noise cancelling headphone so the user can listen to their favorite songs play in their portable audio device in the crowded places. Ergonomic design characterized by foldable headband into small compact size is ideal for travelers. I have been using Sony MDRNC7 for six months now but with care. Every product has its own strength and weakness the way the user will take care the product is the determiner how long the product will last. I don’t regret I purchased these headphones because the price is just right. Sony MDRNC7 is available in all Sony outlets or in eBay or Amazon. Expect 1 to 3 business days if you purchase online. What goes along? Manual, adapter, storage purse and warranty that can be avail to any local Sony outlets. Don’t just buy anywhere else in the street if you want to save your bucks from the low class imitations.

Perfect for me and for you too.  This set evolves as one of its kind and when noise cancelling is concerned PXC 350 is the best choice. I have tried noise cancelling headphones but their power to attenuate background noises is something short off. What could you expect from some expensive headphones? Best performance amidst quiet place? All headphones may it be cheap and expensive in terms of price do the same. The best headphones deliver superb audio anytime and anywhere and how noisy the place is.  PXC 350 has been my partner for almost a year now. From the time I started using it I never encountered any scratchy sounds or inconveniences. I carry it in travel and in my office. What PXC 350 has is the NoiseGard™, a system originally made by the manufacturer of PXC 350 the Sennheiser. This particular system is the crowning glory of all Sennheeiser products.

Using PXC 350 is benefiting all the advantages from a set of good headphones. Comfort; other headphones will cause you to get sore in progress of using the reasons perhaps are the sharp texture of the ear pads and absence of cushion. One thing is the strength of the headbands, headphones I had before are not suitable to use during strenuous activities because I need to put it in place time to time. PXC 350 is not just excellent in noise cancelling it is also an excellent set to wear. The headband is made from flexible material and topped with foam covered in leather like fabric and hold in the head in a strength that will not lose despite active physical movements. Adjustable headbands enable the circumaural headphones to reach the ears by simply adjusting it. PXC 350 is easy to use with volume integrated on the single sided cable which is also detachable.  It can be fold into small compact size that fits the supplied transport case. My PXC 350 is giving me unique music listening experience even when I am out of town or in the streets. Noise cancelling system of PXC 350 is very different from the other brand claiming to have the best of such technology. Why? I have tried lots of headphones and I can really compare. PXC 350 filters even the lowest repetitive background noise. Versatility is also what made me choose this pretty headphones, I can use it in my iPod, mp3 and cell phone and even to stationary devices like component and TV.
