  • Awesome noisecancelling technology. Usual superb Sennheiser sonic performance.
  • Expensive. Lowend grunt is slightly lacking.

  • Abstract:  Sennheiser’s PXC 450 headphones won’t win any awards for elegance. They’re bigger and bulkier than any of their rivals, and the button that activates the noise-cancelling feature is in a stupidly awkward position.

  • Abstract:  When we reviewed a group of entry-level noise-cancelling headphones a few months ago, we noticed that the sound quality was surprisingly variable across the group. In fact, it seemed to us that you were largely paying for the noise-cancelling features...

  • Runs on a single AAA battery, noise cancelling very good, talk button
