Travel Gadget of the Week: Let the Music Play

Sometimes when on a plane, the sweet sounds of Zeppelin (or Hall & Oates) aren’t enough to block out the hum of the engines, the crying babies, the guy who’s really jazzed about his upcoming business meeting, or the insane Sudoku player who has taken to mumbling random number sequences to himself at a surprisingly loud volume. So, what to you? Well, you seek out Noise Canceling Headphones, of course.

The folks from Sony claim that their model will “reduce ambient sound by over 10dB at 300Hz.” And what does that mean for us air travelers, Sony?

“…you’ll hear more music, and less plane…”

Ah, I know there’s a lyric in there somewhere.

As always, let me know if you’ve traveled with Sony’s Noise Canceling Headphones or those of Sony’s competitors.

Have a great Long Weekend!
