Product Description: Whether used to block out sound while on an aircraft or to create a tranquil environment so you can enjoy your favorite CD track, these new headphones are up to the challenge. The new RP-HC500 noise canceling headphones are designed to reduce background noise by creating out-of-phase sounds that equal the background noise to effectively cancel it. Additionally, the headphones reduce low frequencies such as the drone of a plane's engine or a loud air conditioning unit. The noise-canceling feature can also be switched off to allow the user to converse or to reduce background noise by virtue of the headphone's comfortable insulated housing. Includes carrying pouch and plug adapter for airplane Suitable for MP3 and iPod players

Just purchased these earphones and while they work very well for the type of noise I need to reduce (e.g. riding lawnmower, air compressor), the ear pads are for small ears.

The ear cups are a little small for my big ears, but they are still comfortable and the noise canceling works well. The sound quality is as good as I can ask for, and the price was right. Altogether a good buy.

Great headphones. Similar style and performance to a Bose set I used to have, all at a fraction of the cost.

Noise cancelling works well for the price. Works best on engine/air conditioning type noises 85-90%. Even blocks 60-70% of your own voice, really weird. Fairly sturdy. You better have tiny ears as they don't surround without touching. I have average size ears and they are 90% comfortable for a few hours.
