Do these isolate sound well?

I thought they were exceptional in sound and pickup. They are smooth in tone. And they are comfortable to wear.

Yes. To my ears they sound muffled but I can use the custom setting of the equalizer to brighten the sound. They are a bit big.

Not by definition. They're noise isolating headphones (it isolates only a certain amount of ambient noise via the design of the headphones allowing you to hear the music from the headphones more so than ambient noise. Keep in mind that you will still hear about 50%-90% of outside noise depending on the volume of the music).

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.

They're pretty good at isolating noise. People around you will have to yell & even then sometimes you probably won't hear them.

Not that good really, that will also depend how you wear them in our ears and which in-ear tips size(4 size available).With the music playing loud you may not hear outside noise. I would say isolation is about 50%, enough for medium noise environment.

No, they aren't exactly comfortable. I would recommend the etymotics over these all day. As a stage musician I tried both and these ones muffled things worse than the old school spongy ones.

No. You want to treat these more like tweeters. They sound good on the high end, but trying to put a lot of mid-frequency and low end bass through them will only make them crackle.

They should be okay .... I use them without any music on and I dont hear any hissing noise or even when I listen to music very low

They isolated noise very well for me with the stock tips, but it depends on what size your ear canals are. You can always just replace the tips with ones more suited to you if you find that it doesn't fit.

These have a broader frequency response. i would go with these for sound quality.

Yes, as long as u tune ur sound right. They will be the best sound u will hear.

They have good quality for not being on max volume, and they wont fall off that easy, but if you put the max volume (and you migth need to if you wanna lisin to all the detals, at least in my own expirience) it will leak out a little. If you got a good mic, it should not pick background noise. (if you are worried that the sound from your headphones migth catch up, you should get a shure mic instead of the headphones :p )

They are decent at noise isolation. I can tell that people are talking in my office around me with them on when listening to very quiet music. I can hear my keyboard keystrokes. I think I get about 15, maybe 20 db of noise reduction with the medium tips. You'll probably be able to tell you are on a plane, but will still be able to enjoy music without blasting it. I did not care for the included foam tips. I bought these to replace a set of Etymotic ER4Ps, which block 25-35 dB of noise. They are amazing in that regard.

I would purchase a back up just in case and keep them on a seperate mixer to adjust.without mixer they dont sound good.

I think they're pretty good at noise isolation. If I'm playing music at normal volume through my phone speaker and put the headphones on without plugging them in, I can't really hear the music at all. I do this every morning when I'm leaving for work, and I'm always surprised that it works so well.

Not noise canceling but they to me have pretty good noise isolation it all depends on what size eartip you use
