Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The biggest reason I got these was for the noise canceling feature, and hopefully good sound to go with it.Unfortunately I learned real quick that activating the noise cancelation didn't cancel much of anything, in fact there was very little positive change noticed.But even more shocking was this constant low frequency noise or rumble like sound that was only there when the noise cancelation was activated.Adjusting the volume did not affect this one way or another.You couldn't notice it when music was playing, but when there was silence it was very noticeable and quite annoying.I thought they were either broken or just really bad quality.Only positive thing I can say about them is the look and feel is decent.
A coworker of mine has the Panasonic RP-HC500 and we compared the two and OMG what a night and day difference.With the Panasonic, when you activated the noise cancelation it kind of did a vacuum effect which canceled out most of the outside noise and made you feel like you were in a room lined with Styrofoam with dead silence.When I put back on the Able Planet, there was no similar feeling and again just this low frequency noise coming through.As far as the music quality I found them to be just mediocre and nothing special.Clearly the cons outweighed the pros in this case.Not worth the $50 I paid.Even if they were free I would not use them given the issues.It's possible I suppose they were just a lemon set, but again I could feel that when activating the noise cancelation they did try to do something, but the results were just very poor.Given the cost of my coworkers Panny's were just a few dollars more than these, I might just go for that route
