Audio Technica ATH-ANC1 review

 

These noise cancelling cans are ideal for a frequent flyer, whose main priority is portability

Impressive noise-cancelling ; balanced, detailed delivery ; lightweight and very portable

A bit sluggish when passive ; a bit lightweight when active

You can buy better sound, but their portability and noise-cancelling makes them worth a look

Frequent fliers have a special challenge when it comes time to pick out headphones. Finding 'phones with a travel-friendly design, but that are also comfortable and provide great sound with some capability to block out ambient noise can be tough. Now...

The Audio-Technica QuietPoint ATH-ANC1 headphones are reasonably priced, lightweight, comfortable, and super compact; they offer clear and balanced audio with a tight low-end; they can be used with or without the noise cancellation feature; and they...

The headband of the ATH-ANC1isn't padded and may not be durable in the long run. The headphones require a lot of headphone amp power.

The Audio-Technica QuietPoint ATH-ANC1 headphones are a great option for frequent fliers, thanks to their compact, lightweight design, noise cancellation functionality, and good overall sound quality.
