I recently bought the ANC7b after losing my ANC7 headphones (my dumb fault). Although I expected the newer model to have better sound quality, I was disappointed. Mids and highs are more muted, though bass seems more prevalent in the "B" model. I am planning to return the ANC7b model to Amazon, and have found a seller on eBay that has the original ANC7 model for sale.Just my 2 cents...

I haven't used and Plane quiet noise canceling, so I couldn't say if there's a difference. I like my iHome ones fine.

Thank you very much for your help!I found the same headphones at the apple store online (for a lot more then here!). They show the PX 100 in two colors (white and black---no mention of a "W") and the picture they show of the white one is the same as here. It is very strange how different the descriptions are, but I'm going to have to agree with you that they are basically the same.Thanks again for your help, JoshEDIT: The Sennheiser site has the same discription for both products: http://www.sennheiserusa.com/newsite/productdetail.asp?transid=005206 Thank you very much for your help!I found the same headphones at the apple store online (for a lot more then here!).

There's a user review posted on head-fi forum saying that Sony confirmed the difference to be only cosmetics and packaging. I own the XB920 and have tried store demo of the X10, and I find the builds quality almost identical, indicating at least the shell/housing is the same.

Several Head-Fi'ers have asked AKG representatives about the reported differences in sound response. There is officially currently none whatsoever. According to the representatives, the only difference is in badging and any differences seen in graphed results and heard in listening sessions are merely because of positioning during testing and manufacturing variation. Due to the rather large, angled earpads, the Q/K70X's sound response can experience variations of 10 decibels or more in some areas from extremely slight changes in positioning. In fact, a cited common problem among users is that many of them extend the headphones very far down and forward on their cheeks, which results in a boring, undynamic sound. Now, having said all this, this is not to say there is not a difference between the vintage, first generation crop of K701 when it first came out and the newer Q701 and K701/2 that are currently in production. As a matter of fact, many users have reported that the grit in the older K701 is there no more in the newer models.

I don't know about sound. The main difference is that the A34 allows for skipping (forward/backward) and play/pausing right on the speaker itself without going to the Bluetooth device to change the track. Although they look the same, the A34 is a little bigger and a bit heavier than the A33. I'd assume that because it's bigger, it may have slightly bigger speakers, giving it bigger/better sound. And supposedly there it has a long battery life (~8 hours).

By no means definitive here, since I went through the same questions before I bought these. These are open, vs. closed on the 170's. So the 170's will keep out more of the ambient noise in your environment than these will. These also will be audible easier to other people in the area, depending on the volume that can be VERY much so. Even at low volume you can hear it fine four or five feet away. I preferred the open though since I am a single parent with a 9 year old son, so I like hearing if he hollers out during the night when I'm doing something else. But for me the clincher was the far more comfortable velour ear pieces. They breathe, so your skull around your ears won't get as sweaty and wet like the fake leather stuff on the 170's will do. Now, you CAN buy the velour ear covers for the 170's, but they ran like $45 and I only found them overseas so the price difference would've been lost by the time I went that route anyway. Spec-wise, they're pretty identical with a similar feature set. I could find nothing that would push me for one over the other on a purely sound level aspect.

You are correct those are the series 4 version of the speakers. I choose those because of the built-in wall mounts/stands on the series 4...and the price difference didn't hurt either. I can't tell the difference in sound quality.

There no difference but my experience was not very good this product only lasted 2 months and it stop working sound quality was not the greatest. A lot of time one side play louder than the other.

CX 685 has adapters that fit in the opening to your ear canal which creates kind of a seal. The MX is more of a ear bud that fits outside your ear canal. The CX has better noise isolation and the sound quality is better but if you run then the bounce in the cord can transmit back to earphones and can become annoying. The sound quality of the MX is very good. I run and use these because I do not like the bouncing noise of the cord. It does take a little getting use to the finger that fits in the nook of your ear fold and it holds much better compared to an ear bud. After sampling several different brands, these are my favorite for running. If I didn't run or bounce around while exercising I'd use the CX.

I'm not too sure what point cybertext is making but I'll reply anyway.... I have purchased the "Plantronics MX150 Flexible Boom Headset with 2.5 mm Plug" from the seller "NEWandOEM" before. And I placed another order for the same item from the same seller just now. True, cybertext, the item is NEW. Also true is that this item is not OEM -- or at least I think it's not. The item(s) I previously ordered from this seller are marked "MX150BCAE. I just got off the phone with Plantronic -- and they have no such model number. Nevertheless, these possible knock-off and/or non-OEM versions DO work. And, unlike the other OEM versions which cost $30, these are less than $5 each. If anyone can show me where to find this model in a fancy-packaged OEM model for that price let me know!

There is a much smaller sensation of pressure with the QC20's than with the QC15's. It also helps if you turn on the noise cancelling before inserting the ear buds.

I originally ordered the BDP-80 but returned it and traded up to the 83. The reason, however, had nothing to do with sound quality. My reason had to do with a lack of certain BluRay-related video features. As far as I know the sonic capabilities of all the OPPOs are excellent. My 83 is superb, and from what I read the 80 was essentially sonically identical. However, I understand that the later models have less mechanical noise than the older ones. My 83 isn't actually noisy unless you stand close to it, and then you can hear some low-level mechanical rumbling. I would assume the 80 is similar. But from what I've read, the later models are totally silent. I originally ordered the BDP-80 but returned it and traded up to the 83. The reason, however, had nothing to do with sound quality.

One is basically for Console games, the other, Z version, is for PCs mainly. I would not recommend purchasing these headphones at all. They broke after 5 months and Turtle Beach never responded to my trying to get them replaced. They have ignored every attempt to get them replaced while under warranty. I would never recommend their products.

I am not sure but the only difference I see is a round cord instead of a flat cord, they are exactly the same product, Samsung is written on the earbud, they look great and work great, high quality, and no other difference.

There is no difference. Both are WR700, both are KLEER wireless. And I believe TDK no longer makes them. Really good pair of headphones though.
