Item failed out of the box - suspect poor quality control
I was happy to pull the item out the box, and immediately disappointed that I could only get sound from one side. Eventually I isolated the problem to a faulty stereo jack in the headphone. Insultingly, Panasonic made me pay to ship the item to their place in Texas, and adding injury to the insult, sent me a "factory refurbished" unit in its place. This should be illegal. I paid for a brand new item -- and received a used item that cost $10 more.

Good quality for the price
Originally I purchased these headphones just for their noise-canceling, but now I not only love them for that, I love how amazing my music sounds when playing through these. Sure they aren't as good as Bose, but they are a good value. I'm quite satisfied with these headphones.
And they are very comfortable!

Awesome noice-cancelling headphones!
Just tried these (my first NC headphones) on a cross-country flight, and they were fantastic. Very comfortable, even during long wears. Cuts out nearly all of the flight noise - listening to music and DVDs is great. Comes with nice hard-case and airplane adapters. With NC turned off, significant noise is still cut out. Bought at the time for $75 incl shipping - cannot be beat at this price, or even at $100 which seems to be the general street price!!

Sound quality with NC on was great, however, with NC off I thought they sounded kinda bad. Very bassy or muffled even. Didn't bother me too much, since I have other headphones for non-NC situations. I'm not sure if this is just my pair, or how these headphones normally sound without NC.

One of the best items I have bought recently!!!

noise reduction headphones
I have enjoyed my panasonic noise reduction headphones. I basically use them when traveling. I do hear some noise, however, I can get a better quality of music than on my old headphone.

Makes long flights much quieter
These were my first NC headphones and they work pretty well. Not sure how much "other" sound Bose block out but I bought these primarily for aircraft engine drone/noise and they worked well, even without music or movie being pumped through them. I agree with reviewers who said that they are a bit uncomfortable/hot after prolonged periods but what wouldn't be after 7 hours? All in all, for the price and versatility they're a good find.
