Good Noise cancellation, average sound at best

"I bought these based on the price and reviews. I didn't want to spend a ton of money on headphones I pretty much only use when I fly.

"These headphones are a great deal considering the sound quality compared to the price. The sound is rich, with good bass response when you use a properly sized ear pieces (three different sizes are included to get a good fit).

"This set of headphones is the greatest set I've ever had in mmy life i have to say. The sound quality is over the top and i love it.
