PXC 150 Sennheiser Active Noise Cancelling phones

[1kyle]

Travelling in the London Underground these days with literally 1000's of Ipod / other portable music listeners having no "etiquette" about listening in packed spaces I was looking for a decent set of light portable phones that could essentially shut out the "ambient noise" of all these different music devices without costing a fortune.

At just under 45 GBP / 85 USD The Sennheiser PCX 150 ACTIVE noise cancelling phones do the trick like magic. You can also switch off the Noise Limiter when you don't need it. It also has the advantage of cancelling out all those Mobile Phone conversations "I'm on the train..." etc etc. as well. -- Peace at last.

The phones are powered by 2 AA cells which seem to last almost indefinitely.

If you want to listen in peace even in noisy places like London's underground railway system then these phones are a real winner. The quality is good as well --certainly what you would expect from a near 100 USD set of phones.

Recommend these highly if you can afford them.

With the RH1 absolutely superb.

Cheers
