Sennheiser PXC 350 and PXC 450 Noise Canceling Headphones
Categories: News, Sennheiser
Sennheiser have used the Consumer Electronics Show to release two sets of noise canceling headphones, the PXC 350 and PXC 450.
These new full-size headphones aren’t Sennheiser’s first set of noise-caceling cans, but hopefully they’ll be better received than the disappointing PXC 300.
The PXC 350 uses Sennheiser’s NoiseGard™ Advance technology to reduce up to 80% of external noise and will be available from April for an as yet unannounced price.
For those with a bit more cash, the $500 PXC 450 will incorporate Sennhieser’s new NoiseGard™ 2.0 technology which blocks 90% of external sound. In addition, it also includes a new TalkThrough function which Sennheiser claim can distinguish between background noise like an airplane engine and speech allowing you to continue conversations with the headphones on. The PXC 450 will be available from May.
Both headphones are foldable, come with a travel case and are powered by AAA batteries.

They look a bit more convincing than similar offerings from Bose. and I’m in no way a Bose hater. I went through four pairs of Bose triports and loved everyminute of them. But the Sennheiser just looks more solid.

I agree, they do look a very solid pair of headphones though you really should expect that for the sort of money they cost.

My second pair of Bose QC™2 just fell apart, so I have to try these even at $400+
