Rating: - You get what you pay for
These headphones produce not bad sound quality, but they are not comfortable to wear for more than 30 minutes.

Works great but not nearly as good as the BOSE quality one, but I guess you get what you pay for. Blocks out the very loud noise but not to the mute level.
