Headphones: Noise Cancelling – Denon AH-NC732 Active
Thursday, September 17, 2009 11:27The Denon AH-NC732K is a very nice pair of headphones. They are compact, comfortable, and sound very good. The noise canceling works very well taking care of engine noise and other low frequencies. The included carrying case is perfect to slip in your briefcase or carry on bag and it has enough room for all of your adapters and cables.

AH-NC732K Spec’s:

* Lightweight collapsing design
* iPhone/Touch Compatible (no headphone adaptor needed!)
The headphones don’t fit around the ears like the larger Bose Quiet Comforts. They rest on and cover the entire ear. I was surprised that they were comfortable to wear. It took a little fiddling around to get a secure fit but it was worth it. The headphones feel like they are creating a seal to achieve maximum noise reduction. In fact if you just put them on without creating this “seal” you might not think much of these headphones so proper fit is key.
After a 5 hour “break-in” period these headphones sounded great, the highs were smooth and the bass was relaxed. After playing around with the EQ settings on the IPod Nano we found that the Classical EQ setting sounded the best followed by Electronic , Rock, and Latin. With the Classical setting engaged these headphones sound fantastic when listening to the Beatles, Norah Jones, The Doobie Brothers, Daft Punk, etc.
