Why? They fit much better in my laptop bag than my old QuietComfort headphones did and there's no reduction in sound quality, unlike the NC headphones...

Worth a look...

My friend uses Etymotic ER-4S - similar results and you don't have to get ear impressions made... ;-)]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/
A) fold down headphones for easy packing
2) single removable cord into left headphone
D) sound quality unmatched]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/Dec 19th 2005 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/Dec 19th 2005 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/
Plenty of IEMs that sound/isolate far better for much less than those QuietComforts.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/what he said.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/
My recommendation? Buy two pairs - one noise cancelling relatively cheapos for the plane, and one expensive, high quality pair for when you're in an environment more condusive to hi-fi.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/sonys-mdr-nc50-noise-cancelling-headphones/
LOL. I love it how you insecure kiddies always have some way of saying "but the cool people are doing such-and-such!" Why don't you come back in a few years after you've developed your own opinions and grown a spine?

- Better looking than above
- Single cable CAN be detached
- Carrying case is bigger than Bose's QC 2
He claimed sound is better than QuietComfort 2, but I cannot confirm.
