Is it really noise isolating?

Isolating? Yes. Canceling? No. If you get a good fit, they block a lot of the ambient noise but as others have mentioned they do not block out everything. I've used them in airliners and they help. Not as good as the expensive noise canceling buds but they do help. JLab sells replacement silicone tips that have an additional flange which may improve the fit and thus the isolation.

They work well. Key word is "isolate." I could still hear outside noises; they simply did not interfere with (or dampen the quality of) whatever I was playing in my ears. (...as mentioned by others.) Love the price. Will purchase a couple more sets.

Any earbud provides SOME noise isolation and some with tight-fitting eartips do better. Although I really like the JBuds sound and comfort (and the price!), the noise isolation doesn't seem any better than any other earbud set I've used. Some ear canals are harder to fit than others, though, so some of the sound leakage might be due to MY ear canals.

Not sure I understand what you mean by noise isolating. They do not prevent you from hearing ambient sounds. You can hear people talking to you, etc. I haven't used them in my car enough to know if you can hear emergency sirens, but I expect you can.

They won't prevent you from hearing loud noises like say a motorcycle or truck when your out jogging,walking, etc (which may be a good thing) but they do a decent job of letting you hear the music with minimum interference. I think they are worth the price. You can spend more for better earbuds but if your looking for decent sound without high price they are worth the money.

This is not a noise isolation headphone. This is an open back headphone, so others will hear what you are listening to. If you look at them, you will see 3 small vents. They did this for better sound and bass quality.

Obviously some noise but don't consider it too noise. I'd consider it generally pretty quiet.

Klipsch refers to these as "Noise Isolating" due to the memory foam ear cups. They do not promote the product as being true noise cancelling headphones.

Yes. It is quiet but not soundless. If you want total silence, you will be disappointed.

THe background noise is muffled but not completely drowned out. Hope this helps you :)

Look at the graph in the upper right in the link below. It is labeled "isolation." There is little noise isolation in the lower frequency range (bass), but very good noise isolation in the higher frequency ranges (midrange and treble). http://www.innerfidelity.com/images/Monoprice8323.pdf

Noise isolating. They don't let out sound very much at all, but they don't cancel noise very well. I've had a pair for a year or so now, and for the price I would definitely buy them again, great headphones.

Very subjective, but I'd say it's closer to the "virtually silent" end rather than "really noisy."It's not loud at all.

While not good on noise isolation it definately does not snag. I use mine while biking and it lets me hear the traffic.

Noise pollution is very small. I can have volume on my Samsung S3 on max level and if I'm on bus, my neighbour can't hear. If the bus were to stop he might hear something but on normal listening level, which is 2 hits below the max, people around usually can't hear anything. Isolation isn't perfect but I is good and I sure was surprised by it.

It was quiet within a normal home environment. If you have special requirements, you'd better get input from someone who uses it with no background noise.

Not at all, it's almost completely silent... You'll just hear a slight hissing with this one

Yes, I would say there is a decent amount of noise isolation, though perhaps not as much as those soft type that completely block the ear canal.

Yes. It's not silent but if anyone is around you, they probably wouldn't know what the sound even is.

It does help block out a modest amount of noise, but it is not a solution for large noise issues. I hope this helps.

In all fairness, I dont listen to classical music, so I cant jugde that. The noise isolation is ok, for a library it should be ok, I have a kid running around and it isolates enough, to not hear him
