They work great with constant type noise sources such as engines, fans, AC etc. You can still hear people talking in the background, books drop.

I've always wondered how well Bose noise cancelling phones worked. Do they really cancel noise external to the head-set? I understand the concept...mic the external noise and mix it back into the earphones 180 out of phase. Just never got a chance to see how effective. There are times when I have trouble with noises in the house, and I would love it if the head-phones could totally cancel all that out. But.... not sure how far advertised is from reality :) >I have a pair of Delta Airlines earbuds that basically don't work at >all, but my Bose Quietcomfort noise cancelling phones SCREAM when >connected to the rig.
