Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The Targus active noise-cancelation headphones allow you to enjoy music, movies, and less background clamor at home, in the office, or while traveling. The ear cups are complete over-the-ear style, providing greater extended wear comfort for days at the office or on your commute. Designed for storage and portability, the headphones easily collapse, fold and store neatly into the carrying pouch.

The air traveler will appreciate the 2-prong airline adapter plug, which lets you pass the time watching the in-flight movie or just listening to music. The on/off switch controls the noise cancellation and the headphones can still be used without batteries (2 AAA batteries are included).

What's in the Box
Headphones, an airline audio adapter, 2 AAA batteries, a travel pouch, a user's manual, and warranty information.

2.0 out of 5 stars Breaks easily, February 12, 2006

G. Cribbs (Austin, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Targus AWM02US Active Noise-Canceling Headphones (Electronics)
I was happy with the noise canceling features, not the best but definitely works. Great for airplane rides - really helps cut out that background engine noise. My problem however with these headphones hwoever is the design - the first set i had brok near the earpiece hinge and was replaced by Targus (cheers to them). the second set broke too in a different place - the deisgn of these just isn't very sturdy. I'm gentle with my stuff too, so either I had bad luck w/two defective units or they're just not made well.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK, but not very impressive, April 19, 2005
By 
This review is from: Targus AWM02US Active Noise-Canceling Headphones (Electronics)
I am used to quality products from Targus but this did not do it for me. The headphones were quite comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I listened to audio lectures for upto 7 hours a day and nevere had any problems wearing them for such long periods.

The noise cancellation was well below my expectations, thye did cut down the noise but not by much. You get what you pay for I suppose. The biggest problem I had was that when I listened to something with these headphones people around me could hear it too. Not very helpful for me as I study at the library most of the time. People around you can hear everything you are listening to. I also tried a cheaper pair of Maxell noise cancelling headphones which were about the same performance-wise. With the Maxell headphones the sound did not leak out, so people around me could not hear what I was listening to. Noise-cancelling-wise, these were a little better than the Maxell headphones.

One strage thing I noticed was that whenever I used these while studying in the university library and turned on the noise-cancelling, I started to hear some radio talk show station. strange!! the headphones were actually picking up radio waves!! not much fun when u are trying to cancel out noise. Also on one side the copper wires were exposed!! wouldnt recommend buying them. I replaced with the Sennheiser 202 from Amazon for $20. even though the sennheisers are not noise-cancelling, they do a better job in blockin out the noise because they fit tightly around the ears.

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointing - poor design, April 29, 2006
This review is from: Targus AWM02US Active Noise-Canceling Headphones (Electronics)
Shortly after I began using my head phones, I noticed the wiring at the hinges was starting to crack the wire coating. Within 8 months of not-very-heavy use, the left earpiece wouldn't work any more. Guess I can't send them back, since I didn't keep the box!

Also, the battery pack is in an annoying place - every time I turn my head, it catches on something.
