I wish they'd invest the savings in better headphones. Just came back across the ocean on American Airlines and their new "stick-in-the-ear" thingies are horrible. THD was about 90% on both long-haul flights, you had to crank it to max volume to hear anything. Terrible.
A few hundred rapidly shrinking greenbacks will get you a nice pair of
Bose noise-cancelling 'phones.
FWIW, Sony has some out now that work pretty well and aren't nearly as
expensive as the Bose. They come with plug adapters for airlines, too.
Needed to get a set for the office, working around some noisy gear.

Do you know the type and who carries them?

Got them at the local Target but I don't see them on their web site.
These are foldable, included a case & the aircraft-gizmo. I'll grab
the actual model number tonight.


Thanks. Is it these for $49.99?
