Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased 5 different models, here is my opinion ranking them by absolute performance: 1. Tribit QuietPlus - One of the best sounding headsets out there, beats the Sony WHCH710N hands down while costing less. A little tighter on the head than others. Good noise cancellation. Comes with hard case. Great value. 2. TaoTronics TT-BH085 - Perhaps the best headset for the money. Decent bass, balanced mids and highs too, good passive and active noise reduction, light and comfortable. The power button is between the up and down volume - not easy to find. Comes with a soft bag. 3. Mpow H19 IPO - Good highs and mids, a bit weak on bass. Comfortable. Great value. 4. Tribit XFree Tune - Not an ANC model and not very good passive noise reduction, decent bass, mids OK, highs are little weak - safer for young ears at higher volumes. Overall balanced. Confortable. Tribits come with a hard case. Good value. 5. Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones WHCH710N - Nice built quality, disappointing muddy sound, good active noise cancellation, the TaoTronics TT-BH085 sounds so much better for half the cost. The Sonys come without a bag or case. As for reliability and longevity it's too early to tell.
