4 out of 5 stars
Value for money: 3 out of 5 stars "Like silk slippers, these have quality and comfort in abundance. Clarity is pin-sharp and its noise-cancelling works wonders. They're a bit on the large side, but do fold up neatly. A great travel companion." |

Apparently, Sennheiser's NoiseGuard technology was developed for pilots and so its ability to block out engine noise is fittingly well developed. AV Review found the accessories bundle to be rather poor, but suggested that in light of the set's excellent sound quality, many people could very well overlook this small quibble. |

Value for money: 7 out of 10 points "... though there's nothing wrong with these headphones, the lack of meaty bass coupled with relatively high impedance and their sheer bulk means that they won't be everyone's cup of tea." |
