Not so very long ago, I bought the Sony MDR-NC11A Noise Canceling headphones. I travel by public transportation quite a bit and make a long plane trip at least once a year, so I thought that would warrant the purchase of such expensive headphones. I was so utterly disappointed with the Sony headphones (because the active noise cancellation simply didn't work and the sound quality was aweful) that I tossed them aside and bought the Sennheiser PXC 250 shortly thereafter.

Now the Sonys were earbud-style headphones which do block a lot of ambient noise by design, while the Sennheisers were earcup-headphones. So I really didn't expect them to work much better than the Sonys. Boy, was I ever wrong.
