My trusty gold ring ns1000 are on the way out, and I'm looking to spend about £100 on a replacement pair.
Things I liked :
- active noise cancellation
- closed back to avoid angry train passengers
- replaceable cable to prolong life
- comfy and lightweight
- if batteries died I could still use them
Things I didn't like :
- cable snag on armrests all the time yanking them off my head exiting train
- sounded rubbish when on board amp not on
- aaa battery instead of rechargeable (not major as I have rechargeable aaa batts)
So I guess I'm looking for some decent wireless headphones that can used wired if the battery dies, and active noise cancelling would be a nice bonus. I was looking at the Sennheiser HD 4.50 SE which are on sale on amazon to fit my budget, but am open to suggestions.
