    CNET Review

    October 28, 2009

    The Good: Less expensive than competing models from Bose; effective noise-canceling circuitry; device folds for compact storage in included carrying case; they work (in passive mode) when the noise-canceling function is turned off or the batteries have died.

    The Bad: Still fairly pricey; they leak more sound than they should (for a closed-cup design); they sound only OK for the money.

    The Bottom Line: We hoped that the Audio-Technica's QuietPoint ATH-ANC7b noise-canceling headphones would deliver more bang for the buck than Bose's noise-canceling models--but they don't.
