Sony ZX110NC Noise Cancelling Headphones - International Version (No Warranty)

Note: Originally, I did buy these used to save a few bucks. After discovering a break, I ordered a new pair and had significantly better results. If you use EQ, these even rival the 200-dollar kinds. Sony ZX-110s are known to be used by casual listeners to enjoy the support of EQ software. I've even seen people wear them while doing live covers. When professionals wear something, it's best to find out why and trust them on it. That's why I took a gamble and bought these.[When I bought used]I really really really wanted to like these. The cups were comfier than the standard zx110s, but the audi

Use them on every plane flight, haven't let me down yet.

The headphones are fantastic for noise cancellation and even without the noise cancellation turned on, they are effective in reducing exterior sounds coming in. The caveat: the frequency response and the way the sound seems panned between the left and right channels. I gave it a couple of days for break in period, and I found that the headphones created a listening experience that made the audio concentrated in the center rather than being dynamically panned in either direction. The frequency response made sounds a bit more mid-range and I didn't hear dynamic bass or treble like my MDRXB-400s.

If you are looking for a good headphones, decent sound, and the fantastic feature of noise suppressor under $50 this is the product for you. Feeling of cable and headphones looks cheap but for that price is pretty normal, however the sound quality is good if music and sound is not your main job, but for everyday use is really good, and when you turn the noise suppressor on (on right side of the headphones) the difference of sound and noise is pretty impressive.

These fit nice, not too tight. The noise canceling works well. I’ve had mine for over a year and they still work great and are in good shape.

I’ve had these for 20 months. They don’t block all noise but do a pretty good job. The covering on the earpieces has started to flake off. The cord near the plug has developed a short. Fit is snug. I guess they are ok for the $34 sale price but at full price, I probably wouldn’t buy again.

Love these headphones, but the wires seem to break after about a year of use. This is the second pair, and both times, sound failed in one ear, or could be heard intermittently if I pressed the input wire one way or the other.

The headline says it all. I'm not an audiophile; I'm a regular 60+ year old guy who planned to use these to listen to music, podcasts, youtube, and/or the occasional streaming movie. For me, the sound quality was clear and decent. I had no complaints on that front. The noise cancelling feature does work, but it won't silence anything louder than an oscillating fan. That's all the good I can think to say.For the rest of the story; they feel seriously, painfully cheap. Hard, machine punched plastic slapped together with small, also plastic bits. These feel like they wouldn't withstand any length
