Apparently, they're as good as similar models priced at the 1000usd end of

Not really. You can get some decent sounding phones at that price, but
I'd stay away from the Timmy Mallet. I wouldn't recommend noise cancelling
phones as they tend to be tuned more for background hum than normal office
noise, and they don't tend to filter out background music terribly well
either - at least not in my experience... 8).
