User already several headphones (before last was a Sennheiser PX200), I took this model as I travel frequently on airplanes. I wanted a headset with noise reduction but not ready to put 300 euros in a helmet. After reading good reviews in the press and various forums I bought this helmet. it has very good efficacy in air: noise reduction is great because not obligated to provide background sound and it cuts engine noise. This is my first headset with noise reduction so I can not compare it with other models. In addition the price is well positioned. No adjustment problem on the head or gene after a few hours of use I use it with an iPod Touch to listen to music or connected PC with Deezer Does that lacks it to be perfect? I would have liked a button on the remote control to stop the music. I find the cord a little too long for my taste. And when I folded I have not yet found a good way to hook the wire without finding the bulk afterthought.
