Product Details

Sony MDR-NC22/BLK Black Noise Canceling Headphones, Model MDRNC22

No matter where you go, enjoy peace and quiet with the MDR-NC22 noise canceling headphones. These compact and comfortable bud-style headphones can reduce noise by 75% (12dB at 200 Hz), and the 13.5mm driver units produce powerful sound. Perfect for tuning out noise at work, traveling, or even when you are trying to sleep in a loud environment. The noise canceling circuit actually senses outside noise with built-in microphones and sends an equal-but-opposite canceling signal to the headphones. Additional features include an in-flight adapter, compact battery box and it even comes with a carrying pouch.

Pretty Good

Reviewed by DFI (Frequent Traveler) from Chicago, IL on Jan 07, 2009

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Bought it really just for flying. They do a decent job of cutting out noise and providing decent sound. Definitely superior to Panasonic version as far as sound quality and noise reduction. It would be nice to have volume control. The actual rubber ear flanges are a pain to change, but I don't plan to do that often.

Best Uses:	Airplanes
Pros:	Compact, Comfortable, Lightweight

It works!

Reviewed by Lorenzo (Gear Head, Frequent Traveler) from Wadsworth, Illinois on Jun 08, 2008

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

I recently used the earphones on a trip to Hawaii. They do a great job of minimizing the jet engine noise. They make for a pleasurable listening experience when using my MP3 player and dvd player. They also lessen stress when flying on long flights.
