I own crusher wireless. They work well except sometimes the material on the ear part scratches my ear

I wouldn’t recommend any noise cancelling headphones for under $200.

Find the best regular headphones for $200 but if you really want noise cancelling, then step up the price to get the Bose Q35s. I have been impressed with them every time I use them.

I second the QC35. Sony has a comparable set in the same price range.

Bump up your budget. You won’t regret it.

Pony up and get a pair of Bose Quiet Comfort. You can run in them which is a huge plus

Samsung level ons are about 100 on Amazon right now. Great sound could be sturdier though.

I've been thru 5 or 6 different ones. The last ones I bought have been the best. They are earbuds, not headphones...

Jaybird 3

Adding.... mine are used daily in gym. May not be your intended application,

Cosmo let me give you some recent experience. I’ve suddenly found myself doing a ton of traveling after changing careers last year. I decided to invest in noise cancelling headphones and finally put my Bose OE 2 Wireds our to pasture.

I looked at a ton in this price range. Skull Candy has a few, Sony has one the C700N, and you can catch Beats on sale.

I ended up choosing the Sony WH1000MX2. Yes it’s $100 more than your limit, but they sound noticeably better and the Noise Cancelling function is noticeably more effective. I tried in a loud Best Buy and it was very easy to tell. Hell the function of those vs the Beats at $250 was noticeably better. Plus there’s a touch sensor on the right side that will allow you to hear what’s going on without removing the headphones so you can give the flight attendant your cocktail order like a boss.

In all seriousness try the Sony or Bose at the $300 price point. I’d youre spending that much on headphones you should go ahead and get the best you can.

Bose sucks, get some Sennheissers...Costco has some Sony’s as well. See my previous post, and read some reviews...the HD 4.50 cans rival those twice their price.

Don't cancel the noise, man. Learn to embrace it.
