Need recommendation


Looking for wireless, noise cancelling headphones.     Who makes the best, and who makes the best "Value for Dollar"?  Make and model.

Any opinions appreciated!!

Absolutely. I put them on the moment I enter the airport, with just the noise cancellation turned on… then on the plane music or nothing. 
 

‘’When you look around planes… most of the seasoned travelers have them. Even great in the hotel.

OMG,WTH would anyone who has heard decent sound want to listen to a cartoonish SQ(@ghdprentice words) like Bose when you can get something like Sennheiser Momentum 4 for the same or possibly less $ ?
 My God,I would even look at something from Bang & Olufsen before craping my $ away on Bose...

Don’t overlook the Sony WH-1000XM5. Excellent noise cancelling and very good sound. I’ve had a pair of the WH-1000XM2 since those were current, and I’ve been very pleased with them.

The Sonys support probably the best bluetooth codec out there, LDAC, for sound fidelity. However, iDevices don’t support LDAC, presumably because of Apple’s strong NIH culture.

@hifinut51 - I assume that the Sonys will connect to an iPhone just fine. What it means is that it won’t connect using LDAC, but it will connect using the best Bluetooth codec that the headphones and the iPhone have in common. Since there are so many iPhones, I expect that will be whatever the best Bluetooth codec is that Apple has provided.

I am not an expert, especially on Apple devices, so I suggest you check the specs and/or buy from a place that will let you return the headphones if you don’t like them.
