Default Noise Cancelling headphones
Hey I'm looking to invest in some very quiet noise cancelling phones, mostly for studying and times when I need to be focused on what I'm working on and some gaming. At this point im really looking at the ATH-ANC7's they look comfy and have the srong name of audio-technica. What are my options, thanks- My budget is around 150 bucks

They are a bit on the pricey side, but they are so freaking awesome.

But I would suggest these for your price range:

Hey man... I was replying to your PM and for some random reason decided to check out your recent threads

I'm actually sort of in the same boat and have been looking for something similar... except in the $100range...

Probably won't recognize the brands, but I've done my research and have come upon the Equation Audio RP21s and M-audio Q40 as my prime choices
