Sennheiser PXC 350 NoiseGard Advance

Sound quality is crisp, with a deep, tuneful lower end and, despite questionable looks.

Sennheiser’s active noise-cancelling PXC 350s fit snugly around the ear. This helps reduce background noise, even without the noise-cancelling circuit engaged. Turn it on, however, and the din of air conditioning and engine noise retreats into the distance, replaced only by a slight hiss. Sound quality is crisp, with a deep, tuneful lower end and, despite questionable looks, the PXC 350s are more comfortable than physical noise-isolating earphones. The unwieldy battery pack of cheaper models has also gone – pop an AAA battery in each earpiece and the volume control dangles from your neck. Thankfully, they also work well passively. They’re good value too.

 The Sennheiser PXC 450 provides much better noise cancelling and the sound quality is a heap better. Long flights become more enjoyable and less wearysome. Much better value if you can afford the extra dollars.

Looking like it's been plucked straight out of a sci-fi film, you're unlikely to find a gameboard with this much style

It’s something we use all the time, but compared with the hours we spend deliberating over the merits of different processors, memory, graphics cards and monitors, the time we devote to picking a keyboard is minimal.
