eBoob ordered arrived on the early end of the range given, was in good aethestic condition as described, and works great. Also arrived with near a full charge which was a nice perk. At first I was worried the packaging may have been too little when I saw it, but there was no damage from shipping. So, this seller seems to know the items and shipping process well enough to put just the right level of packaging to get you your product safely without any damage and without excess waste.

    The best NC headphone for outside use

    To me, this is the ultimate noise cancelling headphone design. I don't know of any other which has ONLY internal microphones to detect background noise - the external ones are misled by wind noise and will roar a false corrective noise in your ear. Even Sony has retreated from this windproof feature in newer models. It has a builtin rechargeable battery so it is not going to eat batteries if you accidentally leave it on as occasionally happens. Some won't like this because if it dies mid-flight you can't stick in a fresh battery unless you use it's ungainly external battery pack. It is digital which is good except when the battery is out you get NO sound at all. So it may not be best for long airplane rides, but is the ultimate for outside windy use.

  • Better than NC60s, but not amazing (like pricetag suggests); no LF thump.

    I am an acoustical engineer by profession specializing in environmental noise control and electro-acoustics for over 25 years. These headphones are good but not great. I have heard others review that they are just as good, maybe a little better than the Bose QC15s, while others say the QC15s are better. I have not reviewed the QC15s but I own a pair of Sony MDR-NC60s and the NC500s are only marginally better in terms of noise cancellation. On the decibel scale, a 3dB improvement is just barely noticeable to human ears so I would estimate the NC500s to be only about 4 to 5 dB better than the NC60s in cancelling the noise. The three modes (1 airplane, 2 bus/train, and 3 office) of the NC500s are somewhat gimmicky and only change the cancellation spectrum slightly. I think where the ...

  • Best active noise-cancelling headphones? Yes!

    Being a man who collect good headphones, I could not pass away this model. Sony claims this phones as first digital noise cancelling phones, so I'd decided to buy it here, by the way, very inexpensively. I'll compare its with others headphone I own now. Contenders are : Sony NC500d, Philips SHN9500, Denon NC732, Audio-Technica ANC7, Sennheiser PXC450, Bose QC3, Sony NC50 Max score is 10 points. The table is similar one I'd published earlier and reflects my feelings only! Comfort: 9, 10, 8, 9, 9, 7, 8 (supraaural NC732 and QC3 got less) Portability: 8, 8, 10, 9, 7, 9, 8 (lesser the case the better) Durability: 8?,10, 7, 8,10, 8, 9 (I had to use epoxid resin to repair 732) Active noise cancel: 10, 7, 9, 8, 9, 8, 8 (limited to low frequences in 9500) Passive ...

  • Sony Headphones MDR-NC500

    Great Headphones for travel. They are the most comfortable headphones i've purchased so far. Plenty of room for your ear to fit inside the ear cup without pressing down, which is a big bummer when you are traveling for long hours! The best part about it is that it is rechargeable and it comes with a set of batteries that you can connect if the charge runs out on you mid flight! Good sound and very good noise cancelling capability. I would probably not pay $399 which is what it retails for but it would be worth it if you travel a lot and are looking for comfort and great noise reduction. I would say they are better than the Bose but the retail price is steep.

  • nice but expensive NC headphones

    Fantastic sound, and liked the technology used by sony as DNC (Digital Noise Cancelling). One of the advantage and a the same time disadvantage is the size of the cups. They are not as big as those from Bose, that is good, but because of that I believe the noise cancelling is not as strong as with Bose. It does a nice job, but if you are more interested on more noise cancelling probably you have to opt for the aviator model or the bose version NC15.
