The Bottom Line The Clear Harmony holds its own against the competition. But without a price incentive, few users will risk choosing an unknown brand over an established one. Frequent-fliers on a budget might want to consider the Able Planet NC200 Clear Harmony headphones for their comfort, but serious connoisseurs of noise-canceling headphones will be unimpressed by the lackluster sound and questionable build quality. The JVC HA-NC250 Noise Canceling Headphones make a great travel companion for those who demand quality sound. And they may not be cheap, but they seem that way next to the Bose QuietComfort 3. With the QuietComfort 3s, Bose has done a remarkable job of shrinking its popular noise-canceling headphones while achieving similarly impressive sound quality--but that engineering feat doesn't come cheap. Koss hit a home run with the PortaPros. Love or hate the design, there's no denying the sound quality here: they're the ideal companion for mobile audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts.
