This rating is based on my initial impression. I got these as a gift for my girlfriend since she lives in a dorm. I tried them out and the sound is greatly reduced but not totally silent. If you’re looking for absolute silence, you wont get it but you also aren’t down $200 for headphones. The white noise mp3 seems to work well for the short period I tested it out for. Has birds chirping in the background too. It kind of kills the awkward feeling listening to white noise can have but seems like it could be counterproductive. Music sounds great with these on and seems to have been what this product was mainly designed for.

Oh the lovely enviroment of living under a family. My neighbors above have 2 children that are sweet as can be but heavy foot steps. They run and run and play all day long. I know how it is to take care of children, and I always found physical activities to tire them down…so when bed time came along…less crying and more ZZZ’s. So I didn’t want to put stress on the folks above and asking their kids to calm down. So I took the initiative to silence everything my self. Ran into this website from forums, and was amazed once I purchased and received them. Basically…fast shipping, superb results especially with the White Noise Track, and comfortable. Definitely recommend to others especially students trying to study in a quiet enviroment. Satisfaction guranteed. I love it so far…

I’ve been using these headphones all summer for cutting the grass. I held off writing this review until I had a full season to try them out. They have held up great. I got the shorter (40 inch) cord and I listen to my iPod while cutting grass. These headphones have held up great. They have been exposed to grass, dirt, and dust and they just wipe clean. It even rained on me once and the headphones survived that as well. These are tough headphones and they really do block out sound. Great buy!

I upgraded to these headphones from a set of Sony noise cancelation headphones and these Compact Extreme Isolation Headphones are MUCH better. I love not having to worry with batteries and the block MUCH more noise. I agree with the other customer about the white noise mp3. It really is great. I can see people’s lips moving but all I hear is the peaceful waterfall. I’m certainly recommending this to my friends. Thanks!

I bought these headphones to use while studying. The customer service guy at QuietHeadphones suggested getting the less expensive model since I didn’t really need the studio quality speakers in the more expensive headphones. I really appreciate that kind of honesty, not trying to up-sell me just to make more money. They were right. These headphones do a great job blocking out noise and I LOVE the white noise MP3. The only reason I give these headphones a 4 star rating instead of 5 stars is that I wish the headphones were a little sexier looking. But that’s a very small complaint since theses headphones really do block out sound and they are a great value.
