So I'm thinking on getting a pair of these, they're around the same price as the Bose and getting wonderful reviews.. anyone else seen or heard about them?

Unless I'm looking at totally the wrong product, I'm seeing prices between £30-£40, which makes them significantly cheaper than the Bose QCs. At that price, certainly worth a punt. You can always put them on eBay if they're pants.

They look very interesting, anyone have a link to side by side tests with Bose QC2/QC3 models?

Ah, ok - yes, that's a very different product.

I'd be very interested to see (or should that be 'hear') a side by side comparison of those and the QCs.

These two reviews do some comparing... I might get a pair for the Party Bus back from Vegas so you can all do a hearing test!

The Bose ones come with a pretty little flight/pilot case at the moment[:I]

so I got myself some of these.They're really rather good, the noise canceling is splendid, as good as the Bose, possibly a little better... there is however a little bleed out of noise, but not too much. I also think the two other FX on them, one which makes MP3 sounds better and one that creates a surround sound effect are fine, the first one being really rather impressive the second being a bit more like a gimmick. The headphones are large yet comfy and feel expensive, they do however come in a big case which is about the size of a 2 dvds, maybe a little less... but they certainly don't fit in the pocket easily.... the fit in the hand baggage perfectly!

I brought some creative headphones a few months back they were only £30, I wasnt expecting much but when I used them I thought that they were superb and brilliant for travelling as they fold away nicely as well. Would recommend them to anyone.
