Panasonic RP-HC 500 noise reducing headphones
Advantages: shuts out background noise, allows lowr volume, decent sound, removable cord Disadvantages: slightly chunky, lack of lower bass
...twice as much?
The Panasonic RP-HC500's come complete with a hard case and a set of adaptors to suit different environments such as aircraft which have a different connector to most MP3 players . Surprisingly, no AAA battery is supplied so you need to pick up a pack of those before you can start using them properly. Looks wise they appear a little bulky compared to the slimmer Bose ones although the ear padding is nice and soft and overall construction ... ...and for the money, the Panasonic RP-HC500's do an excellent job of noise reduction with a better sound quality than most other headphones in that price bracket. Yes, they could have a little more detail, yes, they lack bass and treble extension but the overall sound still manages to please. Moreover, the reduction in volume that is needed to listen when traveling is remarkable and can only be good for your ears. The price is very fair for the performance ...

Panasonic versus senheiser
Advantages: very good fitting powerfull basses Disadvantages: prompt to interference
...just got hold of the panasonic wf810 brandnew at a car boot sale for a wooping 12 pounds instead of theaverage 35 pound retail price. my friend got a senheiser rs 130 so i got something else to compare it to.
The overall technical specification are more or less the same with the advertised 100m range and so on.
i wonder what kind of sound quality you get at 100m if any at all.
the transmiter is situated in the first floor front bedroom. distance ... ...i just notice that the panasonic got a tiny bit better restitution of the bass frequency wich might be as well de to the fact that the panasonic got this kind of ear enclosing padding and the senheiser just a flat padding. so the panasonic filter out a lot more of external noises like car or so .
i didnot go for the senheiser because the set is far to big for my head and is really easy to lose. the earphones are to far apart and dont have any grip ...

Panasonic RP-HX70E
Advantages: Design is nice, but probably part of the durability problem Disadvantages: Breaks easily! Don't buy it, unless you are really really gently.
Sound is A-OK!
But (in my opinion) the headphone breaks too easy. Bought it, broke it within a week. Got the same product, broke it again within 2 weaks. Now I have troubles getting my money back, or getting them to repair it for free. They could surely say I was too rough with the product and they probably would be right. The problem is they say what you should and should not do with the product. When they say you'll have to be really really gently ...

Wow. ATH-ANC7s are difficult to put down.
Advantages: Sound Quality, Noise-Cancelling, (Lack of - ) Weight, Nifty Design. Disadvantages: Occasional Mobile interference if you're not careful.
Wow. The only way I can describe using these headphones is to say that wearing them is like stepping into a very comfortable, almost entirely soundproof bubble, where you can sit back and relax in virtually any environment. I purchased these headphones mainly for using on the train to and from work, but I've ended up using them almost every time I listen to music/watch a film. As I mentioned above, they are extremely comfortable. The build quality ... ...cans feel soft, but durable. One thing worth mentioning here is the weight, or rather lack of weight! I have happily worn these headphones for hours (literally) without them feeling uncomfortable or heavy. When folded they are virtually un-noticeable in a bag - I carry mine with me everywhere! In fact I'm wearing them at the moment. As a tool for listening to music, I have yet to hear anything better whilst out and about in the real world. Sure, ...

EP-630, Good Quality - Cheap Price
Advantages: Cheap and Brilliant Quality Sound Disadvantages: Common problem with sound going in one of the earphones.
I bought these Creative EP-630 earphones after I had the Sony MDR-EX71SLB Fontopia earphones for about 2 years and was really impressed by them apart from the rubber on the wire. It felt very flimsy and cheap and if you rolled the cable in your fingers you could feel the wire moving about. When they were about 18 months old the rubber started breaking and exposed bare wire. These earphones were £26 when I bought them and for only 2 years worth I ... ...earphones, people were recommending the Creative EP-630 as a brilliant all rounder with great sound and good quality for a brilliant price. In the end I bought some for around £6-7, this price is available from a few online shops. I have now owned these earphones for over a year and there is no sign of breakage. The cable feels strong and if you roll it in your fingers it doesn't feel like it will break. The correct way to put these earphones into ...
