    Reasonable NC headphones for a reasonable price

    By George  Mar 25, 2005 | 9 out of 9 found this Sony MDR-NC6 review helpful

    Pros: Low cost, good performance

    Cons: limited low end response

    I have read reviews of various noise canceling headphones where it was obvious that the reviewer did not understand that the noise canceling only canceled continuous, low frequency sounds, like throbbing jet engine noises, the sound of the air condit...ioner, etc. It will not completely cancel the sounds of someone talking, general chaotic street noises, etc. These headphones do a reasonable job of canceling the sounds that it was intended to do. The only issues I had with them were a weak bass response (relative to other headphones) and the level of hum present when canceling was turned on. Since these headphones are designed for "on-the-ear" wear, they do not offer significant acoustic isolation that a completely over the ear version would. Likewise, the Sony earbud noise canceling version would also be able to block more external sounds, but for significantly more money. For the price, the NC6 headphones offer a reasonable noice canceling capability at a slight cost of low end response. Read more Less
