Re: help, which noise reduction heapdphones

I presume by in ear you want little pod ones?

The suggestions above are great. If he does want to big ear candy ones I woudl go for the

ATH-ANC7 - AUDIO TECHNICA - ATH-ANC7 - ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLING HEADPHONES

They are about £70 from Amazon in the US

Most probably a stupid question but would the likes of Shure and UE work with in-flight entertainment systems? Or is the impedance too different to be compatible? If okay, I guess adapters can be bought freely?
(Might send off an e-mail to Shure or UE next to check the whole.)

PS: Forget my question (was stupid )! Just checked earphonesolutions website and as this
http://www.earphonesolutions.com/eteraijaad.html
is widely available - and also mostly part of the accessory kits for many earphone sets - all is fine.

Question Re: help, which noise reduction heapdphones

Can anyone recommend some noise canceling headphones for my situation:

I live on a busy road and want to reduce the noise whilst I'm studying (with or without music) but still want a set portable enough for use on occasional journeys. The obvious answer would be to use earplugs when I want complete silence but I just find them too uncomfortable so I think the answer maybe in some, on, rather than in, the ear, noise canceling 'phones.

Any ideas for under £100??

Many thanks.
