Best Over the Head Headphones for Trip

i also plugged the phones into my mp3 player and did not hear any static.

i could not keep the headphone on for more than 2 hours at a stretch as it make you sweaty around the ears.

it is a good noise cancellation phone, especially it does not generate hiss between track as most of other noise cancellation headphones have.

the quality of the music and videos when i plugged it into my ipod video was awesome.

they come with a nice case that you can even put you mp3 player in.

as for the the sound quality with an ipod (nano 3rd generation, nano 1st generation, touch 1st generation, video 5th generation are the ones i've tried it with) plugged in, i've had no issues.

i have an older model treadmill that is very noisy, with these on they reduced the noise level where i don't have to blast the volume of the sound system or the tv.

i was desperate for a good pair of noise canceling headphones, both for travel and for use when i'm using my treadmill.

sennheiser has superior sound when you set to the right ipod eq setting.

yet it does hurt after wearing it for a while if you have big ears like me.also be prepared to take the headphones off every once in a while to wipe the sweat accumulating on your ear lobes!

there is only so much amplification you can get out of an ipod without a headphone amp.

also use them with an ipod and makes the crappy compressed music sound as good as it can be.

i thought i knew jimi hendrix's albums by heart, but it was like listening to a new track with these on.

amps are great, but it's great not to need one as your mp3 portable or cd player will do rather nicely.

with music: i had trouble hearing any noise outside the music, it was almost completely silent...i could turn my ipod down to around 25% of max volume and could hear every instrument and then some.

overall, turning on the switch was the same as putting in earplugs, except that when you turn on your ipod it sounds a lot better.

i did find that when i was walking around, i could clearly hear my footsteps as thumps, even with the noise canceling off.

these look good on, travel in a compact case, are sturdy and made by an audio manufacture that knows what they are doing.

i operate farm machinery, and the sony earbuds i have been using with my mp3 player were uncomfortable and prone to being dislodged easily.

i tested these for music with an ipod nano and my stereo system.
