Well since i'm the one who started this i'll ask another question. i'm
leaning towards the sony fold up noise reducing headphones. the question is
anyone who has these, how comfortable are they? and how much noise do they
actually reduce? i hopefully will not need and amp, fewer components going
through idiot security at airports is better. my last flight the security
guy was such an idiot he actually made me make a call before i could take my
phone into the airport (freggin retards). anyway if you have any more info
on the headphones let me know.
thanks
