What's great about it: The audio quality is great and the noise cancelation is fantastic.
What's not so great: Cost
I purchased these to use while walking on a treadmill and listening to music. It is really amazing how well the headphones cancel out the noise of the treadmill and background allowing me to turn the volume down for the music and save my precious eardrums. Great quality, great noise cancelling, but they are very expensive.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Plugging jack into devices -- or not -- for just using noise cancellation

If I just want to tune out my obnoxious upstairs neighbors and not listen to any music, can I simply turn on the noise canceling earbuds without plugging them into my iPhone (or any other device)? Will the active noise cancellation still work if not plugged into a music player or other device? My primary purpose will be noise cancellation (not music listening) and I want something I can comfortably wear around the house -- without always needing to be tethered to my iPhone -- while I count the months until my lease expires. Thanks. ... and never rent a downstairs apartment.
Yes. I believe these work as noise cancellation only, but they work best with continuous repeating noise, like say a fan. For the cost and duration, I would just recommend earplugs like those used for shooting or earmuffs for construction workers.
