Great noise reduction & sound quality

Strengths: comfort, carrying case, wire disconnect

Weakness: none so far

I bought these to replace older pair of NR headphones. I use primarily for flying, but these are so comfortable I've begun using them at work too. These completely fit around my ears and I have no discomfort after hours of use. The carrying case is slim so I can carry in my computer bag or suitcase. Being able to disconnect the wire should prevent damage from the crimping the wire when storing...

Where would you spend your money?

Strengths: Excellent sound, above average noise cancellation, comfort, overall cost, can be used with NC turned off

Weakness: Occasional "feedback"

I have had the Bose QC3, (which I exchanged for) the QC2, which were "lifted" from me while on a flight (whoever you are, you'll burn for that) several months ago. I then bought a highly, what seems now to be, self-touted "off brand," that will forever collect dust, or be on eBay soon. I finally broke down and bought the MDR-NC60's. Admittedly, the QC2's were the best in sound quality, BUT, I fly...

sony mdr-nc60 headphones

Strengths: very good

Weakness: batteries drain too soon

I recently purchased the Sony MDR-NC60 Noise Canceling Headphones. They come in a beautiful piano black color finish and the sound is very amazing. I would recommend anyone to purchase these headphones.

Grrrr.... Battery drain

Strengths: Cover ears nicely

Weakness: Battery drains within MINUTES! Almost immediately get static sound.

Within minutes--or less--of putting new or fully charged batteries into the headphones I start to get the static sound. I can't understand what's happening. Can headphones drain batteries so quickly

Pretty Good!

Strengths: i gave as a gift, and so far, so good!

Weakness: none

what you see and read about, is what you get. I gave it as a gift, and so far there are no complaints. They work just as the explanation says, noise canceling does its job, and they are very comfortable!

Sony NC60 Headphones

Strengths: light weight, comfortable to wear

Weakness: short battery life

Definitely one of the better noise-cancelling headphones in the market but still a little heavy compared to the Bose comfort line products. Comes with a nice carrying case and plane adapters.
