Sennheiser PXC 450 headphones review Review

Fantastic headphones with the best noise cancelling we've heard, but at a price. Audio quality is superb and the build quality will withstand the strains of constant use.
Pros:
  • Sound quality
  • Noise-cancellation
  • Fold-flat design
  • Included hard case
  • TalkThrough feature
Cons:
  • Price
  • Dance fans may want more bass
  • Noise-cancelling bypass switch instead of automatic cut-out

let's get something out of the way immediately. the new sennheiser pxc 450 noisegard headphones are excellent, but they are too expensive- way too expensive. that's why they narrowly missed our editors' choice award. even so, bose's quietcomfort headphone series has finally met a worthy competitor.
Pros:
  • Excellent noise cancellation
  • Comfortable fit
  • Deep low end
  • Great audio performance
  • Passive mode for music listening only
Cons:
  • Very expensive
  • Quite large
  • Volume controls hard to use when in place

Sennheiser PXC 450 NoiseGard 2.0

I was thinking of beginning this review with a plug for Sennheiser, a company that has quietly been producing top quality headphones for many years, but rarely seems to grab the limelight. But every review I've ever seen seems to do that, so I won't. Oh, I did already? Never mind.

Sennheiser PXC 450 review

It breaks our heart to think of all the engineering Sennheiser did on the talk-through button on the over-the-head PXC-450s, because it works pretty well. You're just never going to use it.
