In reply to Joann.

Noise cancelling headphones are definitely a great choice if you live in a highly populated area.

I think you'll be blown away by the difference in sound quality if you decide to try a pair of open-back headphones in the future!

They're not recommended for use outside - but if you wear them in a quiet space, they'll get you as close to the live concert sound as possible.

Thanks for stopping by, I'm glad you discovered a new style of headphones. :)

I’ve never heard of open back headphones before, I’ve always gone for noise cancelling, particularly when I lived in the city. But I’m intrigued by the idea of listening to music that sounds as if you’re listening to it live. I don’t get to go to concerts all that often, so the idea of being able to get headphones that simulate the same sounds as if I were at a concert is very cool. I may have to try these, thanks for sharing!

In reply to Doug. I think Grado Labs is an underrated headphone company for several reasons. For one, their headphones are all hand made. They also have a pretty wide range of options and headphones that can adapt to anyone's budget, whether you have $80 or $1700 to spend. Their over-ear models have gotten a lot of positive feedback and they definitely specialize in open-back headphone design. Thanks for your question! :)
