What headphones are on your ears?
1 points by productionQA 4248 days ago
Looking to grab some new headphones. Looking for a good set of noise canceling, over the ear headphones. I don't want to hear nothin' with these things on.

Wireless a bad idea?

What do you have on?

For noise canceling headphones, the Bose QuietComfort series are actually really nice. Yes, they are Bose, and that means the price might seem a bit higher than it should be, but I believe that Bose has more advanced noise canceling tech than their competitors.

This is just from what I've read though, I don't use noise cancelling headphones much any more, usually only when flying.

Gotcha. Yea, I know Bose is always an option. Not that I wouldn't go with them because they do make quality products, but I am trying to find what else is out there too.
You could try posting the question to the /r/headphones subreddit, too. You'll probably get a few more responses there than at HN.
I have a pair of Logitech UE 9000s - they're noise cancelling, over the ear and bluetooth - they're very comfortable :)
Cool, thanks for the suggestion!
