Great Noise Canceling in a Noisy Office

These headphones are a lifesaver for life in a noisy office. All the constant chatter was driving me nuts till I got these inexpensive Sony headphones. The noise canceling function works great, sometimes I don't play music and just keep on the noise-canceling feature on just to smother out the office yammering. The noise canceling does function best when you have on music AND noise canceling on.
As some of the other reviewers have complained the headphones do really press hard on your ears, like a vice grip, but they do get more loose in a couple of weeks.
I thought the sound quality was adequate, you cannot compare these $23.00 headphones with the Bose noise canceling headphones that sell for hundreds of dollars. You get what you pay for and these are great headphones for the price.

I threw these away....

I threw these headphones away and bought the Bose noise-cancelling headphones.

After straining to hear my DVD player on my third plane trip, I finally got fed up with them. They where not "noise-cancelling" and sounded thin, tinny, and weak.

I wish I hadn't wasted money on these but am very happy with the much better-quality (and more expensive) Bose.
