Cygnett Insound Noise Cancelling Headphones

[Clobu5]

I was wondering if anyone on here has these or has heard much about them?

InSound Noise Cancelling headphones

Australian product at $139. or $90 on ebay.


Found a few good reviews and has features I like: cord jack on the ear, NC can be switched on and off, comes with a hard case...

Thoughts?
Opinons?

Nope but the one sold in the FF shop is outstanding for noise cancellation

Thought i would give a little review on these headphones.

Used them BNE - ADL on Tuesday and was very happy. Ears pods are super comfy and as i have a tragus piercing i find most headphones put pressure on my ear and hurt - not these. Comes with 2 different length cables, airplane jack convertor and a hard case - all good so far! Requires 2x AA batteries for the NC (not included) but easy to access and open on the side of the right ear. Gave the headphones and good shake and squeeze and they seem fairly sturdy and will tollerate some harsh conditions. The head top padding also was nice when laying back and extra pressure put on the head.

I started the flight with the noise cancelling off but couldnt handle it. I was watching the IFE tv shows on my ipad and no less then 10 mins in i restarted the episode and turned on the NC function. The person next to me was also watching movies and i couldnt hear a thing from his headphones and it drowned out a high percentage of cabin noise. A slight loss in low frequencies but i only really noticed as i was trying to fault the sound. I soon forgot about it and went on watching.

I was very chuffed with them.. Until someone told me AusPost had purcahsed 5000 for all their stores to share at a special intro price of $29... But hey they are pretty great and also sold out so im sure the word will spread on these afforable NC headphones!

2 x AA batteries needs a significant amount of realestate to fit inside the ear cover. Are you sure they are AA and not AAA batteries? If they really are AA, then I would expect a very long operating life between battery changes.

Well identified.

Meant to add an extra A on the end. 2x AAA. Will be interesting to see how many hours it lasts before a replenishment is required.
