View Full Version : Re: headphones for air travel
Can anyone suggest headphones for a cd player for use on airplanes? Can you get comfort, ambient noise reduction and good sound in a price range of $75-$125?

Wihtout going into too much detail ''cause it''s late and I''m getting sleepy...head over to <a href="http://www.koss.com" target="_blank">www.koss.com</a> and look for "The Plug". Here''s the direct link.<p><a href="http://www.koss.com/koss/kossweb.nsf/HomeCatalog" target="_blank">http://www.koss.com/koss/kossweb.nsf/HomeCatalog</a><p>Look under the portable headphones section.<br />These sell for $15-20 at Best Buy and are some of the best sounding headphones I''ve listened too. I travel a lot and comfort is very important and these are as comfortable as they are great sounding, and they do sound great. EVERYONE I''ve let listen to mine has gone out and gotten a pair for themselves. Trust me, it''s worth $15+tax to try them for yourself. Go to Best Buy and get a pair.<p>Jeff<p>< April 05, 2002: Message edited by: jeffxjet ></p>

Sony Sports Walkman Headphones - the yellow ones! As good as any of the over-priced pseudo quiet ones. Otherwise, take a nap.

I have about 3 pairs and 1 pair is the folding kind. The others don''t have that folding thing in them, but they do bend really easy so you can stick it in a tight spot.
