I'm curious to hear from people who do whether they're really that great. I was casually headphone shopping a few months ago and listened to a set of Bose's noise canceling headphones in a store alongside one of Sony's that was much less expensive, and I have to say the Bose didn't impress me at all. But that was just one day in a store...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matthew Echert]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2006 10:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on JVC HA-NC80 noise-canceling 'phones rock dual-mode style]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/jvc-ha-nc80-noise-canceling-phones-rock-dual-mode-style/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/jvc-ha-nc80-noise-canceling-phones-rock-dual-mode-style/</guid><description><![CDATA[Does anyone know of headphones that will cancel out human noise?  I work in an office and I want to have it quiet at my desk (can't get a  private room because I need to be available in case a client needs work done) while I study for the CPA/GMAT, but I don't want to use earplugs because that is obvious and comes off as rude (I think).  A lot of employees use headphones while they're working, so it is more acceptable to do that.  <br><br>Therefore, I need a pair that will cancel out human noise (it can cancel other noise too, but it's not as important as there's no loud noises).  Any suggestions?  I know the Bose 2 and 3 are highly rated, but I think I can find something for less than they cost.  My goal is $100 or less.  <br><br>Thanks!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Blurrz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2006 11:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on JVC HA-NC80 noise-canceling 'phones rock dual-mode style]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/jvc-ha-nc80-noise-canceling-phones-rock-dual-mode-style/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/jvc-ha-nc80-noise-canceling-phones-rock-dual-mode-style/</guid><description><![CDATA[Does anyone know of headphones that will cancel out human noise?

I tried the advice that I found on the Lifehacker blog. I downloaded a sample of both white noise and pink noise and set it to loop in my media player. (I prefer pink noise). It works pretty good, but sometimes it's difficult knowing when someone is trying to get my attention. When looping a sample you may get breaks in the sound, I edited the sample with Audacity and made the sample last for about 1 hour. <br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[workmaj4]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2006 12:16AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on JVC HA-NC80 noise-canceling 'phones rock dual-mode style]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/jvc-ha-nc80-noise-canceling-phones-rock-dual-mode-style/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/jvc-ha-nc80-noise-canceling-phones-rock-dual-mode-style/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sorry, but there are no technologies that will filter out random noise like human conversations.

I don't really want the ON THE EAR headphones. The noice cancelling works great on airplanes, but I keep seeing these other products. I think I need to stop reading the labels and start doing some testing of my own. <br><br>The interesting thing is, a guy told me about a much less expensive pair that is supposed to be WAY better than bose. I just can't remember what it is. <br><br>Honestly, my favorite thing about the bose headphones is the compact case (QC2&3). <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[donlphi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2006 12:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on JVC HA-NC80 noise-canceling 'phones rock dual-mode style]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/jvc-ha-nc80-noise-canceling-phones-rock-dual-mode-style/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/jvc-ha-nc80-noise-canceling-phones-rock-dual-mode-style/</guid><description><![CDATA[Buy em' now!<br><a href="http://www.audio-discounters.com/ha-nc80.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.audio-discounters.com/ha-nc80.html</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Adam Gallegos]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2006 8:30AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
