    Attn Head Phone Geeks

    Ok, similar to the earlier iPhone request, what's the best options either here in Perth or at the airport for travel headphones, as in the whole limiting aeroplane noise etc?

    Don't get the el cheapo "noise cancelling headphones" from TDK. Don't quite work.

    Perhaps something like this: http://www.jbhifi.com.au/portable/mp...nes-sku-27517/

    This might be a tad extreme: http://www.altronics.com.au/index.as...item&id=C9069A

    I got a pair of Beats by Dr Dre and I love them. Perfect for drowning out school kIds on the train or the other half

    The set I got retail for $399, there are a cheaper pair or two but it obviously depends on what your budget is.

    I recommend them for anyone with the budget to match though. They are awesome!

    Not so much "left" as "otherwise occupied"

    OK then, buying whatever pair here (and where) v airside waiting to go.
    Is there much price difference?
    Or suck it up for the first flight and get something better for same money stateside?

    Jono the Beats headphones are awesome. You must buy a pair!

    I found the Monster Beats are better then the Pro version that is an extra $100-$200 (depending on where you get them from)

    F**k it. Isn't this what site rates are for? Frivolous purchases? I'll go get a jet ski and a dirt bike when I'm on R&R too. And the Ss to tow them
