The good: The Audio-Technica QuietPoint ATH-ANC1 headphones are reasonably priced, lightweight, comfortable, and super compact; they offer clear and balanced audio with a tight low-end; they can be used with or without the noise cancellation feature; and they come with a few handy extras.
The bad: The headband of the ATH-ANC1isn't padded and may not be durable in the long run. The headphones require a lot of headphone amp power.

The fold-flat headphones incorporate Audio-Technica's acclaimed active noise-canceling technology to block out up to 85% of outside noise, while delivering clear, detailed and natural sound. The active noise-canceling circuitry is located in a handy external module attached to its connecting cord, for extremely lightweight on-ear wear. Although compact, the headphones deliver powerful, immersive sound, thanks to their precision high-efficiency full-range drivers and premium internal components. They're ideal for use with the Apple iPod, iPhone and iPod touch, portable music players, computers, in-flight entertainment systems and many other devices.
