Noise Canceling Headphones

I hate to give these 1 star because they could have been much better:

The band on these headphones is the worst piece of junk I have ever seen. Ok now that I got that out of my system.... I bought these in the main lobby of an airport. After passing through security and into the departure area I excitedly unpacked them so I could try them on the flite. They immediately broke when I tried to put them on. Fortunately the dealer had an outlet in the departures area so I got a replacement. I tried to put the second pair on very gently and they also broke.

All three pair of CV191 are broken and in the trash. STAY AWAY from this headphone. The sound quality is actually very good ... but the integrity of the phones is junk. They are very very cheaply made.

Thankfully Coby replaced two of the three phones at no charge with the CV-192. These seem to be built...Read more
