I was curious to know if anyone has tried these headphones or know anything about them. Especially how they compare to the bose quietcomfort 2's or the shures/ultimate ears

I just got a set. This is my first set of NC headphones and am impressed.

One thing I notices however, was in the store, the sample set was perfectly quiet when turned on, and the new set that I bought have a slight 'white noise' sound that I can hear when turned on. I don't know if this is standard for a NC headset or if I have a defective pair.

Thx

I haven't tried these, but did try several brands before chosing the Sennheiser noise cancelling headphones. They were OK but still let in some sound on planes. Then I lost them, and replaced with PlaneQuiet. These were poor quality and I returned them. Finally bought Shure e5 in-ear speakers. Expensive but excellent - and not bulky like the over ear units. I use them at the gym and in planes - fantastic product.
