What we concluded was that the £50 ones (like I was suckered into
buying - and a famous brand too) are rubbish, even at the background
noise.

but for reducing engine noise in a plane they are excellent.

But there are more expensive ones which are better. And that we don't
all want to spend quite so much money.

I bought my sennheisser 300

Can't be 300's they are only £30.

(50?)'s on Ebay for about $100 and I love them

Probably 350's then. Currently selling for £150 in online shops, which
is way above my budget. Glad you got a bargain on eBay.


I meant to add that I have had bad experiences with noise canceller's too.
The Phillips ear bud version are totally useless. I have tried the upper
end Bose and was blown away, but the price tag is also stratuspheric.
