Able Planet – Travelers Choice NC190 Headphones Review

August 21, 2012 By Africa

TRAVELERS’ CHOICE®    – Foldable Active Noise Canceling Headphones with LINX AUDIO®

When I was approached by Able Planet to review their Travelers’ Choice Noise Cancelling Headphones I was more then happy to do so.  I LOVE ‘jamming’ to music (although I only do this in private, 🙂 ) especially while working or working on school (MBA) work and of course blogging.  As I’ve said before I am fortunate enough to be able to work from home (for my day job) on occasion, and I am in the process of wrapping up that MBA and of course I spend many, many hours on blogging, so I was really looking forward to receiving these headphones to use while I do all these things and not drive Jeanna crazy with my music.

Able Planet Audiot - Headphones

What I like about these headphones is the state of the art noise cancellation technology.  I find this really helps when I spend time at coffee shops, the library and when I am attempting to ‘cancel’ my puppies barking 🙂 .  This feature is powered by a AAA battery and does an amazing job of cancelling out annoying background noises.
These headphones also have the volume control right on the cord making it really easy to control your volume levels depending on your surroundings.
Yet another awesome feature is that they are ‘foldable’ and they come with a neat carry bag making them really easy to transport around in your laptop (or any other) bag.

See the picture below of me wearing my headphones

    Yeah I have no clue on the technology part and what makes what work. I Do LOVE to jam and sing though, so I also need something so they can’t hear me sing 🙂 Awesome review and love your Jamming picture!

    These sound like some pretty decent headphones. I too need to cancel out my dog barking at times and this would be good when my husband plays his music in the front room and I can’t hear my computer. Great review.

    I can TOTALLY see how wonderful those would be when working or studying, especially if you enjoy studying in a public place like Starbucks or Panera Bread. I personally would love the noise cancelling feature because sometimes, you just want to get away from everything; I have issues concentrating sometimes, so I think these would help that! 🙂

    Great review!

    I would love these for work, whoever thought cubicles in a work place was a great idea and the forcing us to share the space on top of it is completely insane and should be put in mine for a few months. This would be so nice.

    These would be great for my son when he is listening to music or playing his video games. He complains he can’t hear his games, because I complain when I hear the music coming out of his ear buds and make him turn it down, these could be the answer..
