Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com Product Description
Portable audio takes on fresh life with quality headphones, and Sennheiser's folding, lightweight, closed-ear PXC 250 is designed to keep outside noises out and headphone sound in--perfect for use in busses and libraries alike.
Increase the peace! The PXC 250 features a noise reduction unit
that cancels out background noise.

When engaged, NoiseGard active noise reduction drops steady-state low-frequency noise (from about 500 Hz and below) by 15 dB--which the human ear perceives as more than halving the noise--thus enhancing the clarity of your music. The noise reduction circuit requires 2 AAA batteries (not included), but the headphones work fine without the circuit engaged.

Sennheiser's fold and flip design lets you turn the ear pieces 90 degrees and fold the headphones closed. Their ported design lets them move more air for greater bass response.

What's in The Box
6-foot Kevlar-reinforced cord, .25-inch stereo adapter, airline adapter, belt pouch.

4 out of 5 stars good value   August 3, 2008
Bought these for a trip from CT to AZ. They make a big difference once the jet engines fire up....wish I'd had them on all my prior flights. They fold up nice and small and stow in their own case.
I will purchase over-the-ear style for my next set, though.



2 out of 5 stars Works great. Breaks even better.   July 30, 2008
I bought these two weeks ago. I liked them because they're compact. The sound quality is very nice for something so small. The noise cancelling works great too.

So why two stars?

For starters, the noise cancelling unit is very sensitive to interference. If I put the stick next to my cellphone in my pocket, it creates a very loud, constant popping noise.

Worse though is my headphone is broken already. I only use this around the house, but the plug is very weakly designed. Most headphone jacks are curved or made out of hard plastic.

This one is long, narrow, and wrapped in rubber. So it took about two weeks of casual use for the headphone jack to completely come off.

I'm sad.



5 out of 5 stars A must have for long flights!!   July 16, 2008
I bought a set of these recently and could not have been more impressed with them! They are fantastic. They were incredibly comfortable (and my head is not a small one-ha!)and really reduced the amount of stress I normally feel when flying due to the noise of the plane itself as well as the noise of people (usually kids) around me. The noise canceling feature works amazingly well. I used them with my personal player (for music) and with the onboard system when watching a movie. They worked well in both cases. They are a great quality for the price.




5 out of 5 stars Sennheiser PXC Headphones   July 8, 2008

I have owned Bose Brookstone and various other head phones. The Sennheiser for the price far outperform any I have owned. They are the most comfortable head set I have ever owned and the sound quality is superb.


5 out of 5 stars great headset !   July 7, 2008
These sennheisers (PXC 250) are really nice! They are better quality than I expected! I moved from a private office at work (where I could shut my door for peace and quiet) to a large space with other co-workers nearby. I have trouble blocking ambient conversations and noises so I got these puppies to help my concentration. Wow! They are the best. I can use them w/o my ipod for the quiet I need sometimes or with my ipod and the music I like to work by (fast).. Lots of options. Amazon had the best price and I got in on the rebate with Sennheiser for $25 back.
