With impressive sound performance, a sleek and comfy design, and Sennheiser’s best noise cancellation yet, the new PXC 550 are primed to be your next set of travel cans.

The Sennheiser PXC 550 are a set of high-quality active noise cancellation headphones with a boat-load of features – but they come at a price.

Pleasing transparency for the price ; Top timing ; Clear and dynamic sound ; Smart, minimalist design ; Effective noise-cancellation

Slightly rich bass ; In-house competition

Sennheiser offers talented wireless noise-cancellers at an even more attractive price point

Great sounding ; On/off control well implemented ; aptX connectivity.

Unresponsive touch controls ; No battery notification ; Noise cancellation could be better.

The Sennheiser PXC 550s manage to achieve that full-bodied Sennheiser sound we've come to expect, but some of their other features leave a little to be desired. The PXC 550's greatest strength is their sound. Other wireless noise-cancelling headphones...

Highly customizable sound. ; Lightweight and sturdy build quality. ; Comfortable and stable fit.

Mediocre noise cancelation. ; Leaky at higher volumes.

The Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless is very comfortable, relatively lightweight over-ear wireless headphone that sounds very good and features impressive noise-cancellation technology. It has touch controls and delivers excellent performance as a headset....

It's pricier than the Bose; while the sound quality is excellent for Bluetooth, it's lacking that little bit of extra sparkle and definition (Sennheiser's own Momentum II Wireless sounds better).

While it doesn't quite eclipse the less-expensive Bose, the Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless headphone is comfortable and feature packed, and performs very well.
