Compare Noise-cancelling Headphones To Find The Best For Your Budget
If you are looking for the best noise-cancelling headphones there are many reviews online to help you decide. This can be time-consuming and confusing if you are in a hurry, and not everyone has the luxury of time these days to compare noise-cancelling headphones reviews in order to make a wise decision.
The following is a brief and unbiased list of the top rated brands based solely on reviews from some of the more popular review sites online for this particular product. The review sites are PC Mag, CNet Reviews, Consumer Search, OnHeadphones, Playlist and Seat Guru.
To begin with, the first three below were named in most of the review sites, and were normally interchangeably in the first, second or third position, with the Bose Quiet Comfort 3 coming in as a number one pick in 4 out of the 6 review sites.

Bose Quiet Comfort 2
Sennheiser PXC 300
While the Bose QC2 and QC3 were praised for their overall noise-cancelling performance and comfort, there was mention of the high price in comparison to the other brands. The Bose QC2 is currently priced at $299 while the QC3 is retailing around $349. The price seemed to be the main sticking point with the reviewers. In some of the reviews it was pointed out that the Sennheiser models PXC250, PXC300 and PXC350 performed extremely well, and at a much lower price. The Sennheiser PXC300 is currently priced anywhere from $105 up to $219, depending where you buy them.
Below are just a few of the other noise-cancelling headphones that received good reviews and are listed in accordance to price range. Of course, the reviews were balanced with comments on the weaker aspects and room for improvement in each unit.
The highest in price, even more expensive than the Bose QC3, are the Shure E500 PTH noise isolating earphones for approximately $499. Next are the Able Planet Clear Harmony and Creative Aurvana X-Fi priced around $299. The Audio Technica ATH ANC7 is approximately $220 and the remaining headphones are all below $200 with the Sony MDR NC6 priced around $50.
