I agree with the comment about the puke factor when there is no music playing, but I'll get used to that. I had a 6 hour flight from Philadelphia to Seattle, and was able to play quieter music like Sigur Ros and Explosions In The Sky which I wouldn't normally play on a flight - the sound quality is excellent, with very good bass. The noise cancelling on the flight was awesome. I fly several times a month for work, and I'm looking forward to getting a lot of use out of these headphones.

I was extremely unimpressed by the Bose in every aspect. The newer Sony’s are terrible compared to the one’s of old. Alan-

Is one any better than the other? Also, is this noise canceling technology so expensive that any quality headphones with it are always going to cost ~$300?

I guess I'll be stuck with my Apple iPod headphones until I can stop buying textbooks (which will be never). ::sigh:: another 300 dollar audiophile item that I can’t afford.
