Review on Bang Olufsen Headphones Cancellation Transparency by Pamela Moody

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pitch perfect! with headphones

Yes, B&O products are trendy and expensive, but not this one. I've tried almost every font out there and this is my absolute favorite. Deep bass, crystal clear highs and a perfect overall balance with a completely flat response curve, music plays as it was created. The noise cancellation is absolutely amazing, my best personal experience was trying it out in 50mph wind gusts and finding myself. almost silent. That's pretty impressive. Traffic noise is also well tolerated. I haven't tried it on the plane yet, but I'm looking forward to it. Combined, noise reduction has very little impact on the quality of music playback. Love the fact that I can plug it straight into a standard 3.5mm jack, that's really a bonus. The assembly is solid and high quality, the design is very cool, there is nothing surprising, this is a real B&O product. Some people complain that the headset doesn't stay in place. I had a bit of a problem with this issue until I discovered that it was possible to compress the headband for a better fit by squeezing a little harder. Battery life is as advertised or better, never had an issue and charging is very fast, Bluetooth pairing is easy, the included app isn't overly useful but doesn't need to be. So we have 1) Great sound: yes 2) Great noise cancellation: yes 3) Great battery life: yes 4) Great quality and design: yes. I will definitely recommend it, worth every penny in my opinion.
