Review: Able Planet NC200 Noise Cancelling Headphones

 

Being an urban dweller I often find myself wanting a bit of peace and quiet, some space to relax with my thoughts and my music – or just to escape the strange gazes on the tube. So for me, a pair of noise cancelling headphones makes a lot of sense and...

Review: Able Planet NC200 Noise-Canceling Headphones

 

Jet engines. Interstate traffic. Blaring sirens. These are the sounds familiar to urban dwellers. But as noise pollution permeates cityscapes, so does tech to combat...

Great value and passable audio for the price. Easy to carry and stow thanks to collapsible frame. Produces clear thumping bass and smooth left/right panning. Surprisingly little distortion at high volumes

Bulky, un-sporty frame ensures indoor-only usage. Ear cups are terrible at containing audio. Laughable thin audio sans noise canceling. Audible white noise during quiet sections of songs and dialogue. Pimpalicious velvet carrying case doesn’t protect jack

Able Planet PS500MM Stereo Multimedia Headset review: Able Planet PS500MM Stereo Multimedia Headset

 

Able Planet PS500MM Stereo Multimedia Headset

Comfortable, lightweight PC headset; works great with gaming and voice-chat applications; Linx Audio technology appears to work (more can be heard at lower volumes); carrying case; works with USB.

Microphone cannot be tucked away; no wireless solution; using USB dongle can occasionally confuse PC about how to play sound; ear cups are quite small; Linx Audio makes for a flat sound.

The PS500MM headset performs and sounds great, but we're not sure the Linx Audio technology and lack of wireless is worth the hefty price tag.
